Santorum is a non-starter. He is for the huge intrusive nanny state.
No thanks.
I did a lot of reading on Santorum over the weekend. I came to the same conclusion. He doesn't seem to have a strong instinct for Liberty.
Santorum's view of good government would not be as Liberty oriented as Jefferson's view of good government, which follows:
A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government.
