though I really wish Santorum would get the VP call for one of 'em)

Santorum lost all my respect and support when he chose the single-bullet baby-killer over Pat Toomey.

Pardon me, but I feel thats a bit short-sighted.

True, Santorum was on the WRONG side of that decision. But I would ask if you ever listened to Rick speak on conservatives or conservatism. I, personally, have never heard an elected republican (well used to be elected..heh) speak so passionately or convincingly.

I mean when I listen to Rick, it feels like I'm listening to someone who really gets it and isn't afraid to speak out. It feel like I'm listening to RUSH or Mark Levin.

Though I do agree Santorum wussed out and backed Toomey, it was wrong. I just look at the rest of the clowns we have in our party and what we forgive them for (Specter, McStain, Voinovich, etc) and I can't see holding Santorum down for that one mistake. (especially when he is so good at communicating, which is EXACTLY what most others in our party lack right now -- thats why I think he'd be an asset as a VP, instead of Pres)

Who do you like for VP? Newt perhaps might be nice... an idea guy for lots of much needed mechanics, but without having to put all the baggage out front?

Ah, the joy of being unforgiving and unappeasable towards the last true blue-state conservative ...
Are you enjoying the Democrat majority in the Senate yet?

You do realize that Santorum's loss is a huge blow to the conservative movement, dont you?

Does that bring tears of joy to your eyes?
