Read it. And then tell me this isn't exactly the kind of man we want in the senate.
I think I'm going to post this on every "Santorum sucks" thread. The pro-death ghouls are definitely trying to abort Rick.

The latest Rasmussen Reports survey shows that Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum is continuing to lose ground in his battle for re-election. Santorum trails Democrat Bob Casey, Jr by twenty percentage points, 54% to 34%.
>>>But would not Casey vote FOR all of these as well?<<<
I did not vote for Casey. I voted for Santorum on the belief that he was conservative.
I'm here in Ohio and I can tell you DeWine has no chance of losing, period. None.
That was a political payoff to AccuWeather in exchange for their bribes campaign contributions. It's a textbook example of the corrupt "crony capitalism" that has screwed up the post-Communist transitions of some of the old Soviet Empire states (most notably Russia itself).
I agree with you....he should be going about his biz, but sidetracked by being pummeled about.
Iraq,
Katrina,
Scooter and Rove,
Jordan bombings
weak election results...
tons of bad PR and even some conservatives are wondering why he is not fighting back
Heck no, but to be on the safe side I am going to stay out of traffic for a while.
Hey, I am damn sick and tired watching Bush play the role of punching bag. Someone has to conduct an intervention and get Bush back on track.
There is no reason for the lack of leadership -- for instance, where is the President on drilling in the Arctic wasteland?
I'm trying to share your optimism, but after Tuesday, I'm not sure Rick can do it. Our only hope is that Casey opens his mouth early and often.
Well gee, kinda of hard to be a positive President when you have a proven liberal biased MSM, reporting, and some people on FR sucking up the MSM "news" like mother's milk.
Of course he knew. I think he overestimated how many people would understand that he had no choice in the matter. You don't have success in politics while trying to unseat senior members of your own party.
People don't want to live in reality and want to punish Rick for doing what he had to do.
IAC, he needs to go full bore to win them back. His argument must be that Casey WILL vote down the line with a very liberal party, or be treated like a pariah as his father was.
Of course he needs to win them back. But they have to start seeing things more clearly. Put themselves in Rick's shoes and honestly look at his choices. If he had bucked Bush and Specter, and Specter still won, he would be a pariah in the Senate and in his party.

Allowing your children to see their baby sibling before burial is a reasonable choice for a person to make.
Only an disgusting anti-religious liberal would scoff atband denigrate a family's decision in such a matter.
"...Listening to all you defeatist losers here on FR is really charging me up. Though I'm a Jerseyite, I think I'm going to work for Rick in 2006. I'd rather go down supporting a good man like Santorum--whom the gays and democrats publicly DESPISE--than supporting some RINO lackey."
Amen, brother. I live a long way from PA. What can we do to help?
Yes and yes. There will be no opposition to his getting the nomination. If those whining here really wanted things to change, they would have a candidate in the primary. Instead, they want to punish Santorum and give the seat to the democrats.

I'd like to have better than DeWin in OH, but HE'S THE CANDIDATE.
"In a word? Philadelphia!"
In another two words: voter fraud (in Philadelphia).
[FYI: President Bush lost PA by a mere 144,248 votes; he lost Philadelphia by 412,106 votes -- remove Philadelphia from the equation and the President (Santorum) wins PA easily!!]
Lots of excellent 2004 PA election data at
