True as that may be, I’m not sure you’re being fair. There are so many liberals in PA and the media bias is tipping all these elections in their favor. If the media was doing their job of reporting facts and not getting the Democrats elected, I’m sure we would see a lot more of these elections swinging our way.

The good news is that with the Obama administration in the White House, they’ve exposed themselves. We see their “plan” for America is to turn us into the Russia. We see what will happen to our Constitution, our rights and freedoms that ARE God-given. We see what will happen to a government that has run amok taxing the rich, the middle class and everything else in sight but will not even pay their own!! We see what happens when lawmakers ignore the law, the Constitution and God’s law.

My hope is that people are now beginning to understand what’s best for America after looking into the face of evil, immoral men. My prayer is that more young Americans are beginning to understand the God’s plan for living, and for government is not about inclusion, exclusion or political correctness, but about truth. Living the truth is freedom. That is what our forefathers envisioned for all of us.

Can't we just say that neither are worth a fig? Santorum is at best a cultural conservative, but is downright liberal in some ways. He seems to see the federal government as the shortcut to ending all of society's woes and during his tenure, was not shy at all about trying to drastically grow federal oversight in several areas.

For example, Santorum was as happy as a clam to work with liberals, introducing a bill with Kerry called the Workplace Religious Freedom Act(^), requiring employers to make religious accommodations for their employees, stripping employers of their right to run their businesses as they see fit. Hillary Clinton & Ted Kennedy were big supporters of that particular bill, too.

And lets not forget that Santorum tried to push through the Pet Animal Welfare Statute of 2005, which would have regulated small-time pet breeders at the federal level, requiring licensing with the USDA, among other things(^).

And finally, Santorum enthusiastically supported Mitt Romney last year(^), saying "If you're a Republican, if you're a Republican in the broadest sense, there is only one place to go right now and that's Mitt Romney."
