I read a borrowed Wall St Journal...yes, the paper version...a couple times per week. Not the whole thing, mostly the opinion pages.

At first they were all about Mitt, either supporting him or at the least advising him on how to do better than he was doing.

Now they are all about Mitt and Rick Santorum. Long articles in general defense of Rick and the social issue comments becoming such a big part of the campaign. This, from the WSJ Romney wing.

There’s an old saying, “Any port will do in a storm”.

If it’s going to be Santorum somewhere on the GOP ticket, they either pretend not to be bothered, or they truly are not bothered. They appear to be trying to smooth over any rough spots for him.

If he weren’t surging in polls, this wouldn’t happen.

But his surge in the polls has been greased...let’s face it.

First Romney destroyed Newt Gingrich. Only South Carolina stood up for Newt. After that, the deluge.

Romney’s bazillions were joined by GOP E Media attacks.

Rush and Levin, especially, helped Santorum’s rise...Levin openly endorsing Santorum, Rush tacitly helping him while stopping short of endorsing.

All the media from all spectrums have generally treated Newt as if he had a catching disease and needs to be quarantined.

At this time, he two most qualified candidates are nothing but faint asterisks. Perry and Gingrich.

I am angry...not on behalf of my own personal picks, but on behalf of this nation.

Do you believe the party wants the base left with the notion that Mitt will pick Rick as his VP? As this OpEd suggests to the reader?
