But to still be so angry that you don't see Santorum for who he really is - a rock solid, principled conservative, and the most openly and strongly pro-life candidate in the field......

Nobody is doubting Santorum's credentials, or that he is a solid conservative. He has just lost any momentum he may have had going into Iowa.

Bachmann is a pro-life and rock solid conservative, as is Perry and Palin (who may still declare). The point is to challenge flipper-flopper Mitt Romney, who now claims to be pro-life, but on any given day could change his mind. Pawlenty just blew it with attacks on Bachmann instead of Romney, which made him look weak. A stupid move if you ask me.

As long as Santorum is in the race, the principles of conservatism, economic and moral, and a strong foreign policy position, especially in the ME, will be front and center.

It is way too early to want such a solid conservative out of the race. Santorum makes the field stronger as long as he's in it.

I agree. That turned me off of him. She was right to defend her vote. I'm glad she got to explain why she voted the way she did. It made him look like a jerk.
