Mark Steyn skewers the leftist scum that are so desperate to keep the Kenyan Marxist in power that they'll attack a man that they perceive as an enemy to Obama by ridiculing his actions born of grief and love for his recently deceased infant. This kind of gutter politics will be the hallmark of the Obama campaign. Leftist idiots such as Alan Colmes and Eugene Robinson making the initial strike against Rick Santorum are simply doing what the left always does: engaging in the 'politics of personal destruction'. They have to. Obama is a colossal failure and has low public approval numbers so the left tries to marginalize his (possible) opponent, Rick Santorum, in a political preventive strike.

However, they clearly over-reached and if this kind of rubbish becomes the standard for the Obama campaign (always carefully executed by surrogates, never Obama or his associates) it will certainly cause a backlash. The left live in a world where dead babies are celebrated as a 'right' and cannot fathom why anyone would grieve over a newborn that did not survive when the same leftists push for 'partial birth abortion' laws to be repealed. Alan Colmes is a guttersnipe and is easily dismissed as such but he may have inadvertently shown America the depths the left will wallow in to win an election for a man who was not qualified to be president in 2008 and is far less so, in 2011. One hopes that Americans will be repulsed by this kind of indecent, scurrilous attack against a decent man, Rick Santorum.

The left is so sophisticated and empathetic, is has to demonize Santorum's grief reaction. The left would mock an Irish wake if they had to, even if it was for Ted Kennedy.

Make no mistake, with Santorum as the nominee, it hits the left where they are the weakest, the white working class. They would prefer to wage their class warfare campaign against Mitt.

...and speaking of partial-birth abortion...

They hate Santorum for this, for his actions cause the demon-inspired slashes in their own souls (from the slaughter of their own children in the womb) to throb.

NO cheers, unfortunately.
