In the spot, titled “Agree,” Santorum highlights all of the areas where he and his fellow GOP candidates don’t arrive at a consensus. He notes his disagreement with former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney on “government run Romneycare.” He calls Texas Governor Rick Perry “dead wrong” for supporting in-state tuition rates for illegal immigrants. Santorum also vehemently opposes the Wall Street bailouts, which former Godfather’s Pizza CEO Herman Cain supported.
However, the take away message of the ad is that Santorum and his fellow GOP contenders do agree on perhaps the most important issue: defeating Barack Obama in 2012. “Barack Obama has to go,” Santorum says, “And if there’s anything we’ve learned from his failed presidency, it’s that experience matters.”

Yes Sir you called that lazy stuff out. How about this?

Now here is something that rocks.
Yeah baby. That’s more like it!
Republicans nominate Governors, military leaders, and businessmen.
Democrats nominate Senators.
Go home, Rick.
Well, he about spells it out correctly.
I sure do wonder who our nominee is going to be.
I don’t know if this is hipster or not, but I been on the Feist bandwagon from the start, and I dig her new jam:

I’m just breaking into the Cheddar Pringles, but i gotta crash soon too. Cheers bro.
Santorum really sucks - he’s always been an embarrassment.
I understand that Santorum is a long shot. With my political views, I seem to always gravitate toward the long shots. I guess that I could simply support the most popular guy instead, but my conscience doesn’t seem to like that option. And I feel good about the Santorum 2012 bumper sticker on my car. I like Bachmann and Cain, too, but Santorum has been getting my money. Over the years he hasn’t just talked the talk, but he has taken the arrows. (You don’t have to ushers the kids out of the room before you google the name “Romney” or “Perry” on the internet.) He has the courage of his convictions. I like that. Keep up the fight, Rick.
Correction: I shouldn’t have lumped Perry together with Romney. Romney stands apart (and not in a good way).
Rick’s still my #1 choice, but with the primaries being moved up to such ludicrous dates, barring a minor miracle, I don’t think he stands a chance. Neither do Bachmann or Perry.
In fact, after Michele’s latest juvenile attack in the last debate - “turn 999 upside down” - I’d prefer that she dropped out so her supporters would move to more deserving candidates.
I’ve heard it several times on the radio and a very fine ad, it is.
Sometimes one must strategize and that is exactly what Santorum did.
How is Santorum an embarassment?
I firmly believe that is the single most devastating reason his career has flopped and can't get the momentum to recover.
I'm pretty sure he did it at Bush's (Tokyo Rove's) request, but he never should have done it! Imagine the difference in the country if we'd had Toomey in there instead of that rotten skank Snarlin'.
Santorum knew that if the Republicans lost Spector in this seat, it could affect the outcome of Bush's judicial appointments, so that was why he did it. I agree with Santorum under that circumstance.
Toomey would have voted the right way as a regular habit. Someone else could have been appointed to the Judiciary Committee who would have done the same thing or better than Specter on appointments.
Jon Kyl was on that committee too and he could have stepped up into the Chairmanship and later Ranking Member. In fact, Jeff Sessions (who is also excellent) did move up into that position. Both of them would have been a thousand times better than Specter.
