We all want a conservative, but people are not voting for them. Why?!

We only had one vote and people did vote for a conservative in Santorum. Newt and Perry received votes too. All three of them had votes from conservatives. I think people are voting for conservatives. Tomorrow the three will receive even more conservative votes.

Could it be the vocal majority are not conservative? Could it be that such wouldn’t recognize one if it bit them? There does seem to be some question in the mind of the electorate.

Paul voters vote for Paul only. Someday they will vote for Rand only. LOL. Santorum did well in Iowa because I believe he picked up a lot of Huckabee voters. Those were probably split wilth Perry, but Santorum picked up most of them.

If Santorum actually does pretty well in NH, he may go on to do well in SC. maybe. I like Rick, but I don’t think he is enough of a shark to beat Obama.

I can understand the desire of uniting around one non Romney, but the question still is whether it will be Newt or Santorum. The most important thing is to beat Obama.

I don’t see that happening until after SC. I hope then that those who don’t have a chance would leave the race. The timing is crucial. If Romney wins NH and SC, he will be hard to stop because people tend to get behind the winner.
