Reagan reached out to dems in 1980. Trying to figure why Santorum doing essentially the same thing is a foul.

Trying to get people from the other party to vote for you is a tactic to win elections.
Reagan appealed to Dems, who became the Reagan dems.
Believe it or not, there were Republicans that voted for Obama.
Before the election word was being passed around that Obama would govern from the center like Clinton, so it wouldn’t be so bad. After all, all we had was McCain.
Everyone on FR knew that was pure hogwash. We knew Obama would run far left, which is what he did.

First, I despise Mitt Romney ... I'm a Newt Gingrich guy ...
Second, Mitt Romney was "correct" about Santorum's "public" solicitation of Democratic voters in a Republican Primary ...
Santorum (stupidly) VIOLATED the "process" ... an admittedly screwed-up process ... but still the official "process" ...
As an unexpected consequence of Santorum's Michigan mistake, we'll probably (finally) see a national state-by-state move to "close" GOP primaries to GOP members only ...
and that's a great idea ...
Of course, I'm happy that Santorum DEFEATED ROMNEY IN MICHIGAN ... vis-a-via the delegate count ...
Trust me ... "all" of the professional Political Class (Karl Rove, Rush Limbaugh, Dick Morris) ... and the MEGA-BIG-MONEY guys ...
Properly see Romney's MICHIGAN LOSS as his Waterloo (as per Napoleon) ...
Romney's campaign (at this point) is akin to Napoleon's capture of Moscow ... a series of pointless victory ... spending (by one estimate) $ 375,000 per GOP Delegate won ...
Romney's fading away began TODAY ... 1 March 2012 ... even Matt Drudge sees that ... with his "Newt as Lazarus" front-page story this morning ...
Santorum will fade also ... and after Newt's Super Tuesday victories will "finally" have the sense to drop-out ...
All of America's "genuine" Conservatives and Patriots can breathe a sigh of relief today ...
Mitt Romney (John McCain II) is strategically checkmated ...
And "The Kenyan" WILL BE DEFEATED by Newt Gingrich in November 2012 ...
