Good observations and data. Thank you both.

At this point, I'm personally hopeful that the continued slugfest between Newt and Mitt will drive both their negatives so high that the GOP will settle on the unifying candidate which polling shows can beat Obama handily in key swing states: Rick Santorum.

I know the man well. He was my district's congressman for 4 years and U.S. Senator for 12. He is far from perfect, but he is honorable and decent.

There is a lot of crap they can throw at him, but far less than what has already been unloaded on Newt and Mitt.

Still, any of the three would make a far better POTUS than what we have now, despite the hyperbole you read.

V-man, you make a good case that your guy has a path to the nomination.

If you seriously believe he could defeat Obama in November (with the electorate of 2012, not 1950), please make the case.

I just don’t see it at all.

Well said.
