Santorum is the last surviving conservative Republican in the whole northeast. There is a reason for that. Frankly, we need to encourage more moderate Republicans because otherwise we just cant win there. Yes I would rather have moderate Republicans then liberal Democrats. Wouldn't you?

No. Actually Santorum in the first of the new wave of conservatives in the north east. More will be elected...Ohio is a red state. WV is a red state...PA will be next time.

Yes, but I would rather have 54 GOP senators and John Kyl Chairing the Judiciary Committee than 55 GOP Senators and Specter Chairing the Judiciary Committee.

Moderates are fine as long as they're not in any of the important poisitons. Lincoln Chafee sits on the foreign Relations Committee. How would you feel about him being the Chairman?
