OK Michelle, it’s your vote to throw away, and you did.

Who knew she wanted a Theocrasy and wants the govenment in her bedroom.

Who knew?

Well guess she goes for Romney because an endorsement for the looser Santorum is a vote for Romney. Sometimes one has to select the lesser of the two evils. Michelle screwed up in spite of all her raving. I’m done with her.

Guess you just don't get it. A vote for Santorum IS a vote for Romney.

Just curious. When did one of the liberal memes become a talking point on the GOP side? The whole “Theocracy and Government in the Bedroom” meme goes back to it’s use by the Left on Reagan. Apparently, as your use is not nearly the first I have seen, the GOP, or portions thereof, do not want better than a third of their traditional voters - the Social Conservatives.

Besides. Newt is just as social conservative as Santorum.

I respect Santorum. I respect his supporters. That said, he strikes me as a .22 caliber candidate in a .50 caliber kind of political war. Even this booster article has to concede his fiscal weaknesses. What are we now? Oh yeah, not just broke, but hocked.

His daughter is not well and he had to suspend his campaign to care for her - the right thing to do, and that is another proof of his upright character and his love. I do not dispute his virtues. However, he will not have that freedom of action as a president. Suspending his campaign hurts only himself. Suspending his governance as a president hurts the entire nation.

If he wins the primary I will vote for him in the general. Right now though, his actual contribution is to keep conservatives divided, and as a result each conservative candidate will be defeated in detail.

There are a lot of Santorum backers on FR who hate what has happened to Newt, but are for Santorum. His baggage is definitely no worse than Newts. Many think he won the last debate. Most of us who support Santorum will vote for Newt as second choice and never vote for romney. We do have time to let this play out

Delegate Math: Don’t Anoint Romney Just Yet

Mitt Romney may have won Iowa and New Hampshire, but even if he wins in South Carolina and Florida, he will technically still have a long way to go before winning the GOP nomination.
Mathematically, no candidate can seal the nomination until late April, which leaves a lot of campaigning yet to be done.

Don't be like the establishment who say we shouldn't vote like we want, but have to vote for their candidate. Most are willing to vote for Newt if we can't get Santorum, but are Newt's backers saying no to Santorum out if he starts to win? Is it never Santorum like its never romney?

Your analysis might be more convincing if you spelled ‘theocracy’ with two ‘c’s.

Who knew she wanted a Theocrasy and wants the govenment in her bedroom.

Please elaborate.

Do you think all pro-life conservatives want America to become a "Theocrasy", whatever that is -- or just Rick Santorum?

Do you support marriage as Rick Santorum does, and if not, why do you consider support for "gay marriage" appropriate?

Do you believe in religious liberty and respect those with beliefs different from your own? If not, what are you doing on FR, and if so, why do you care about what Rick Santorum and his wife do in their own bedroom?

Is your view that anyone who espouses opposition to contraception - the near-unanimous view among Christian churches until the 20th century - should be held up for scorn and persecution?

So, if Newt is so concerned about having a Conservative voice represent the party, why doesn’t he do the honorable thing and drop out and throw his support to Santorum? Polls show Santorum would do better against Obama than Newt.

So you two are OK with Newt trashing Paul Ryan, supporting Dede Scazofazzi and carrying on an affair with Calista for EIGHT YEARS????

The Calista thing is in the not so distant past, but the other two were within the last year and a half! And the guy is out there currently trashing capitalism.

Newt’s a peach all right.

Calling the 2008 Financial Crises “manufactured” seems like a bit of a stretch - it seemed very real to me. Maybe she means manufactured years earlier by the government.
As far as TARP is concerned, most of it was paid back only $132 billion is outstanding of which is mostly owed by GM, Chrysler and AIG - two of which were not originally supposed to be part of TARP

Notice how she starts off with this when she mentions Romney:

“Mitt Romney has the backing of many solid conservatives whom I will always hold in high esteem... “

But for the House Speaker, who gave us the GOP majority for the first time in 40 years, she starts off with:

“Then there’s Newt, who has long made a career out of trashing progressive Saul Alinsky while employing his tactics at every turn...”

So if you are really for Romney and you know your audience will freak out if you say you are for him, just say you are for Santorum!
