Why not? They elected a worse amateur twice.

We need a strict-constructionist conservative that can educate the country...Ted Cruise is one of the few possible solutions...that from one who thinks it is already way too late.

Rick, You ain’t the guy.

Support Cruz.

He knows how to fight.

You don’t.

I don’t like Sanatorum. He looks and acts smarmy. Women don’t like that. He has no charisma.

[headstamp 2]

Yes, because Obama had such a deep resume.

Santorum has zero chance. How does a guy as boring as Santorum have the ego to think people will vote for him?

[proxy_user]

I would prefer a governor with at least a term and a half....who is currently serving. When did Jeb Bush, Rick Santorum, or Mitt Romney last hold office?

As for the senators, they usually get knocked out in the primaries. There is an obvious exception, but I don’t think the voters will make that sort of mistake again.

Santorum is always going after the conservatives in the field. It’s what he does. He dismantles them like the little scumbag that he is, and then he hands things off to the RINO because the little turd in the sweater vest is unelectable and only good for attacking others. I still remember when this scumbag was agreeing with others that we shouldn’t be “attacking conservatives,” and yet he was still running disgusting ads against Newt.

For those who haven’t read the article, it isn’t really about Santorum or Cruz. It’s about Rand Paul.

Amateurs built the Ark.

Professionals built the Titanic.

I rest my case.

Sick Sanatorium

[Sans-Culotte]

Better a so-called amateur than a has-been.

[chae]

Because he won Iowa...

[fatnotlazy]

Condescending too. It's good to be assertive and self-confident and Santorum started out that way, but eventually, he began to look down his nose at the “little people.” His personality became tiresome.

Newt was GOP-E all the way. He was the one who told New York to vote for deedee Scozfava because she was a solid Republican, and then she endorsed her democrat opponent a few days later. And did you hear the tongue bath he gave Boehner on Hannity’s show? No way Newt!

[liberalh8ter]

Go away, Rick.

[fwdude]

Agreed. We need someone who has put in a term or two as a governor of a significant state to run. That does NOT include RINO’s Bush or Romney.

No problem with Santorum’s advice, which he should follow.
