I live near Chicago, and, about a month ago, a liberal friend of mine emailed me and asked me whom I think the GOP presidential nominee will be. I said, “It will probably be Santorum. Two of the last three republican presidential nominees (McCain and Dole) were congressmen and senators. Santorum is the only current candidate who has been a congressman and senator. I hope that I’m wrong, since McCain and Dole lost.”
My wife, Nicole, is conservative, and she voted for Rep. Paul. I asked whom she’ll support, if the choices are Santorum & Obama. She said that she’s undecided, since she thinks that Santorum is too conservative.
I hear you.
