Wow. That doesn't say much for Santorum.
As for me, the mud on his feet started to show first when he blamed voters for not leading the leaders, or some such mumbo jumbo, though he phrased it in happy sounding campaign-ese. Most of all, though, was at the end of the South Carolina talk (I've linked it elsewhere), when he exhorted people to keep true to their "values," to vote their "values." My business is language, and I know cryptic language-to-avoid-shooting-straight when I see it -- a big part of my job is to steer my clients away from it because it is the equivalent of junk food. I complained to a friend: "What does he mean by 'values'? That’s fuzzy bsh*t talk. WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY VALUES? Talk turkey, or don’t talk at all."
Gingrich has a lot of flaws, and he's very risky because he might go sideways at anytime, though it seems to me that he has a solid history of sticking by his campaign promises, and he's made some GREAT ones lately.
But Gingrich TALKS TURKEY. Santorum is too chicken-hearted to say exactly what he means when he urges people to vote their "values." If he means "vote for somebody who isn't on his third wife," I say Go sit on it and rotate, Rick.
Santorum is the weaker of the two.
Remember he supported mr uber rino “scottish law”
