The very fact you think Santorum is ready for the Presidency defines you and your buddies. Naive. Most people aren’t on board with your man because they know he isn’t seasoned. I have no problem with him but he’s not ready to deal with what’s going on. We’re on the brink of a civil/race war. He’s our Jimmy Carter. Not happening.
Here’s why Santorum is electable. Newt is on record as saying FDR is his favorite president and was a global warming adherent. He is soft on illegal immigration, and has a litany of ethical lapses, and has $1.6m FreddieMac albatross around his neck. Obama will unload his $1B on all of this. If Santorum carries PA (favorite son candidate), attracts enough Reagan working-class Democrats to put Wisconsin and Ohio back into play and with Rubio as VP, FL returns to the red state column, its history for Obama. And, yes, he’ll pull a larger share of the women’s vote, a crucial demographic. The ultimate issue is defeating Obama.
