You make a good point, but Romney went out of his way to be liberal in MA as did George W. Romney in MI, but Santorum has been a consistent conservative for PA standards, too conservative for the voters there in fact. I know he will fare poorly in NH and has little chance in SC too. All this adds to a certain Romney nomination.
Well, now we're down to matter of degree. Not sure I agree with that, and I am certainly no Romney supporter by any means. Just interesting that what you said is true but is so often not applied on message boards. To me it shows that Republicans are asking for trouble when thinking about nominating folks from blue states. Hard to be guv of Mass and GOP nominee in the same lifetime. Somewhat true of being a statewide politician in PA also.
