They will attack ANY candidate with the same ferocity as they will Santorum. Our question that we must answer is whether we will fight for principle, or surrender before the first shot is fired. It will help mightily in a dire struggle to have a candidate that it’s worth fighting FOR. And that’s Rick Santorum. Bob
He seems to be cutting your preferred candidate to ribbons on a shoestring budget. What does that say about how weak and unprepared your guy is to fight the Regime?
so are you for Paul or romney????
loser’s aura in the wake of getting trounced by 19 pts last time out (as an incumbent!)
What a damn liar. That race was 17 percent and could easily be verified by a simple google search. When I see a major flaw in the story, it should be completely ignored. Total crap story.
If Santorum ends up being the GOP nominee, I think he starts in a pretty good position. Usually a Presidential election boils down to one of three big issues: Economy, Moral or Defense. Obama is in trouble on all three of those, particularly the first. And now, because of his arrogance, he’s brought the Morals issue to the fore. Heaven knows he’s clueless on Defense.
If, and that’s a BIG if, the GOP nominee can stay on the offensive, taking the election to Obama, we’ll be OK. Pound, pound, pound him on the economy AND have a clear plan to get us out of this mess. Offering “hope and change” platitudes won’t cut it. Be specific and on the attack.

This is getting a little old now. Every time one of the Republicans starts getting a little traction some one on here or at other sites starts posting the equivalent of : “He/She’s gonna get killed in the general by Obama. Obama is going to portray him as an out-of-touch Wall Street operative (Romney), a crazy, unlikeable old-news politician who hates women (Gingrich), an whiny, weak loser who hates women (Santorum), a Bush retread (Perry), an incompetent race traitor who hates women (Cain), etc, etc.
Do you see a pattern here? No matter WHO we nominate, the billion dollar (though that’s even debatable) http://theweek.com/article/index/223287/obamas-billion-dollar-campaign-did-the-fundraising-hype-backfire Obama machine will attempt to pummel whoever the nominee is.
Look let’s have the debate and I think actually this long primary process is actually good as all parts of the Republican party have their say, all weaknesses are brought up now, we get to see what the Dems line of attack would be on each Republican and it toughens up the eventual nominee as well as keeping Republicans’s issues high profile.
Support your candidate but let’s drop the “But Obama will tear this particular candidate to pieces” because that’s true no matter who our nominee is. No Republican nominee will be attacked any less than any other. And I think any of the candidates will be able to respond to it well as long as we see what’s going on and stick together no matter who the nominee is.
