Rick the Spoiler

Posted on 01/31/2012 4:20:32 AM PST by CanadianBloodAmericanHeart

Is there anyway to make Rick Santorum see that he is toast? He is ruining the chance to beat back the elites, as least for this cycle. Hey Rick, how concerned are you really about the judges Romney will nominate? How concerned are you about your kids and the debt load Washington is about to unload on them? Look buddy, you're done. It's been nice seeing you, and we give thanks for hammering Romney in the last debate, but if you don't drop out now, you will have the Ross Perot spoiler label forever cemented in history. Be a man.

Brace yourself, the Saintorums are very thin skinned when the truth is spoken about their Saint. You have to wonder if Mitt isn’t funding his campaign.

Wow. One thing and he gets pounced on.

It is not "one thing," it is an example. The one everyone here readily understands. There are numerous others, I'm sure you've seen them if you follow Santorum threads.

Unseal your eyes. Santorum staying in at this crucial moment:

Cui bono?

Saint Perot was leaving FL before his daughter got sick. He announced it a few days before he left and she got sick after he arrived home. What honesty?

He has stabbed Conservatism in the back before.

Oh yeah, he said he was going home to get his taxes done. Apparently he has never heard of H&R Block. Why would someone wanting to be President do his own taxes? Ever hear of delegation and then he never got them done anyway. Wonder why Mitt doesn’t run any nasty commercials on his little buddy???

As both Sarah Palin and Herman Cain have both stated. “This race needs to continue”.

Either it is only 4 states or it is over after 4 states. Most here can’t seem to make up their minds. You would think that we have to make up our minds immediately and that is not true. We have a long road ahead. We won’t know our candidate until this Summer.

>> If your candidate doesn’t have what it takes to win, that’s his problem.<<

No, it becomes our problem if Santorum plays Perot.

>>Polling this week in Florida shows if Santorum was not in the race his support would be divided evenly between Newt and Mitt.<<

That makes no sense whatsoever. Santorum and Romney share nothing in common. How in the world could someone justify switching from Santorum to Romney? What are they supporting anyway?

Rick Santorum should be out of this race. He has no chance to win and all he is doing is making sure Mitt wins. Maybe he is angling for the VP slot. Otherwise why would he keep on with 12-15% in every race?

Maybe Newt and Romney should get out? Newt has so much bad history you'd think he worked as a baggage handler at an airline, and Romney is a very recent convert to conservatism. Critics could say he's a situational conservative. And I mean I'm just saying why would anyone expect another candidate to get out to pave an easy path for Newt or Romney?

Having said that I'll upset more than a few people by saying I'm supporting Newt, Romney, or Santorum if they're the Republican nominee.

Face it. Romney will be the nominee even if Santorum and Paul got out today and both endorsed Gingrich. Looking to assign blame is a foolish waste of time that would be better spent retaking the senate.

Gingrich isn’t going to overcome Romney in the northeast, west, midwest or south west.

And Santorum supporters are going to help make sure that happens right?

Blame the strong, less flawed candidate for the problems of the flawed??

We knew Santorum was strong on family values, islofascism, amnesty, abortion, and no TARP bailouts. And only this last week, we learned he can fight his ass off in debates too!

We do not need a hot headed amoral yet brilliant narcissist any more, not to beat newt nor Obama.

It was the same strategy used AGAINST Romney in 2008. Divide and conquer. Santorum is this election cycle’s Huckabee. As much as I like him, I believe he’s working for the establishment to conquer Newt.

Not to mention if he would actually win the presidency! How much time could he devote to his daughter as president, or to the presidency if he wants to be with his daughter? Something doesn’t pass the smell test.

Even if he doesn’t endorse Newt, just get out of the race!

If Newt had not danced with the devil too often, he would be ready to walk into the White House. Don’t blame Rick. That is a cheap shot.
