Newt endorsed RINO Dede Scozzavave in NYs 23rd district, but Santorum (and Bachmann) endorsed Dedes opponent conservative Doug Hoffman. We should not hold that alone against Newt, but we also shouldnt hold one mistake against Santorum either.
Mark Levin said long ago that he would vote for Santorum or Bachmann. He does his research. Now more rank and file conservatives are doing their research, and are realizing that Santorum is the best!
“If voters start shifting gears and deciding they want ideological consistency, then they’re going to start paying attention to say, Rick Santorum.” Sarah Palin
“How I hope this is true about Santorum, but the critics say he cant win anything else even if a miracle happened in IA.”
Santorum won 4 times out of 5 in a blue state which is why I’m optimistic.
Here’s one example.
“Two years later, he (Santorum) won 61 percent of the vote even as President George H.W. Bush lost his district by 22 points an astounding result, really”
Santorum can never be underestimated.
The best outcome for conservatives is that the Bachmann supporters flock to Santorum. It seems Perry is stronger in IA than I had expected. I hope they support the right “Rick” — that’s Santorum.
