I agree Santorum has other priorities right now. And I will be praying for the family.

But I can’t believe the folks here who are trying to use a personal tragedy in Santorum’s life to help get Newt elected.

I trust you don’t mean me. I reported on Bella’s condition and I know if Santorum leaves her and she dies when he’s not there, he will never forgive himself. He needs to drop out for his family - and, when he does that, endorse Newt, not Romney, because that election is going to happen Tuesday.

Look--he's running for the nomination and there's a crucial primary coming up. The world doesn't stop in its tracks because you have a sick child. You don't stop functioning, you don't abandon your campaign in midstream and expect to just pick up where you left off some time in the future. That's absurd. You continue to function. You deal with it. That' s it.

Perhaps you misinterpreted what some were saying. It's not about Newt but America - do it for America!

I kinda missed your comment. <:

The initial thread last night announcing little Bella’s condition brought out one tasteless comment near the top of the thread. The pile on against it went on all night long and took care of that.

The point is pretty clear that regardless of the child crisis, Santorum is staying in, and regardless of the child crisis, we want him out.
