Oh, I was being sarcastic. I dont think there is a candidate out there who is interested in limiting the size and scope of the Federal Government, other than the guy most people wont vote for. Which is why I havent campaigned for anyone.
I think it is dumb to support Newt just because he can beat Romney (maybe). I dont see their presidencies differing that much in what the President can actually affect. But groupthink is sinking in. I see too many “copy and paste” and “Union style one-line trolls” coming in and discouraging people from supporting who they like. It adds nothing to the debate.

I sense a showdown brewing up, they are starting to get a wee bit snippy around here. Ummm, you only just now noticed?? :)
You'd be amazed what's been crawling out of the woodwork since SC...

Yeah, it's bad strategy for Santorum to attack Newt, since according to the
latest PPP Poll most of Santorum's supporters would pick Newt as their 2nd choice.

For 30 pieces of silver, Rick will endorse Mitt (if nothing more than spite).

Santorum doesn't wear well with time. I was pretty good with him about 3-4 weeks ago.
I thought a VP slot might be good as late as about a week ago.
Not anymore, he has a bit of maturing to go...

For years I've had to stomach the stories of Santorum supporters on this forum as they made the point that when Santorum supported Arlen Specter over Pat Toomey that his was a principled stand. Then, as now, we see that Rick was just taking care of the most important person in Rick's life - Rick.

I like Santorum when he focuses on principle, and when he goes after Obama. He comes across as a serious contender.
When he goes after the other candidates, it doesn’t work for him, he just comes across as petty.
He should stick to what works for him.
He is the #2 choice for most people who support Gingrich. It doesn’t do any good for the #2 choice to be attacking their #1 choice. Go after Obama. Raise up conservative principles. Do what works. If you lose, you lose honorably.
Leave the mud-throwing to the romniacs.

Doesn’t she receive the same forgiveness extended to Newt Gingrich and Callista?

nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh. Last thing we want is a brokered convention where the Boehners and Cantors and McConnells of the party call all the shots. They wouldn 't let "SP" in the door.

Seems to me that’s one of the more damning admissions one could make in asking to be chosen the leader of a Free People, yet he says it proudly...

If Santorum stays in, the greater the chance of a brokered convention... and guess who could get the nomination then: SP!!! Exactly who other than Republican big wigs do you think is going to pick the nominee if there ends up being a brokered convention?
If there is a brokered convention say hello to Jeb Bush, Chris Christie or Mitch Daniels as the Republican nominee.

Romney hacks are funneling big bucks to Santorum so he can stay in the race and help attack Newt.

I agree.
Why doesn’t he talk about BHO and what he would do to roll back the crap dished out the last three years.
He really is starting to sound shrill.

What if that’s true? Should he remain silent?
This is situation normal in politics.
If it’s not true, then it should be refuted. But it’s futile, and not helpful, to act as though the other candidates should never try to knock “your guy” down.
