The Left's launched a jihad against Pennslyvania's U.S Senator Rick Santorum. They don't like his blunt candor. And they hate what he's said in his new book. He's outlined a conservative philosophy for achieving the common good in the 21st Century. No wonder the village elders have him in their cross-hairs.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

[k2blader]

Well, Santorum deserves some heat from conservatives.

[Mo1]

Santorum is a favorite among evangelical voters and conservatives who cheer his outspokenness, even while some confide that they wouldn't dare go as far.

Why does the media act like evangelical's are the only religion out there?

[BigSkyFreeper]

They don't like his blunt candor.

Especially his views on morality, good strong family values, and the fact that he's pro-life. The three things the left finds themselves at odds with these days.

CONGRESSIONAL CONTESTS

October 27, 2000

STUART ROTHENBERG: Yeah. You know, I think the Republicans see this as an opportunity to score points with their base by saying, look, the president vetoed a tax cut, and the president vetoed a hike in the minimum wage. The way the Democrats are going to view this is we are going to get into a fundamental argument with the Republicans over priorities and spending issues, and, not only that, but our advocate is Bill Clinton and Bill Clinton has won and won and won. He's the New York Yankees of these legislative logjams. So I think it's a question of who's right, what is this argument going to be over at the congressional level in terms of campaigns.

2004 Elections and Their Impact on the 109th Congress

Stuart Rothenberg

The death of the Democratic Party “has been grossly exaggerated,” Rothenberg said. He predicts in two years Democrats will have a majority of governorships, but could lose more Senate seats in the 2006 elections. Such changes in political preferences have occurred many times in American history, and will continue, he said. “I remember when many people thought the Republican Party was dead following Goldwater's defeat in 1964. It didn't happen.”

[Reactionary]

I suppose it would shock the idiot Leftists to know that one doesn't need to be an "evangelical" or even a Christian to agree with everything Santorum has written.

Liberals are so "open minded."
