Rush has turned into the anytime/all-the-time Santorum promotional and “spin” machine of late. That's fine; bur, why doesn't he just come out and endorse Rick???

If what Rush is saying about the GOP-E fearing Rick was true you would see sitting GOP-E Governors, Congressmen and Senators shadowing Rick around wherever he campaigns; just as they did with Newt in Florida. That ain't happenin’ ...and who do you see??? ...Donald Trump! I guess “Myth” is on his own at this point and apparently “The Donald” was the best he could do. Pitiful.

The GOP-E doesn't fear Rick. He's a lawyer just like most of them and his core values are limited to being a Christian, a good family man and strongly pro-life. He has no vision and no big ideas. He will need all the help he can get if he wins the nomination. The GOP-E will be right there to “assist” him if, and when, that time comes to pass.

The GOP-E will reach an “accommodation” w/Rick. Freiss already stated On Gretta's show that he would like to see Romney in the Veep Slot if Rick wins the nomination. One thing you can be sure of; if Rick wins the nomination whoever he names as VeeP will be a GOP-E insider; either Romney or a Romney guy (McDonnell, Christie, Rubio, etc)

You betcha!

And the Newt supporters totally choose to ignore that Newt hinted that Romney could be his VP or that Adelson’s new money to Newt is for the sole purpose to go after Rick to peal away Christians, Evangelicals, support, voters away from Rick and help Romney ? .. just WOW... imagine the hypocrisy of the Newt supporters.... no,,,, nothing to see here folks, move along now..

One longstanding school of thought is that, since the VP spot is largely ceremonial if the President does not die or resign while in office, if the upcoming Presidential election is perceived to be a potentially close one, that the VP should be picked from a different wing of the Party than the President in order to draw in more votes for the ticket. If that option is implemented, it should not be thought strange for Santorum to pick someone like Romney or Christie. Neither should it be deemed a sellout (unless you think that Ronald Reagan sold out when he picked George H.W. Bush). It could be a wise strategy, with little collateral damage, to put the ticket over the top.
