Santorum: Romney running "desperate campaign"
CBS ^ | 3/25/12 | Lucy Madison

Posted on 03/25/2012 9:08:28 AM PDT by jimbo123

Coming off a decisive victory in Saturday night's Louisiana primary, Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum is blasting Mitt Romney's campaign as "desperate" and lacking in message - and one that will be unable to effectively go head-to-head with President Obama come November.

Santorum, in an interview with CBS' "Face the Nation," contended on Sunday that Republican voters want to elect a nominee who has "their principles written on their heart - not on an erasable tablet."

God bless you, Sir. Now I DO think that you’ve been swayed by someone who has Etch-a-Sketched himself into a conservative for the time being. But, what exactly did MR mean when he said that he’d be “better on gay issues than Ted Kennedy”? Which Etch-a-Sketch is the real portrait? Or IS there a real Romney with core principles not for sale? Read massresistance.com for more info on the LIBERAL Gov. Mitt Romney. Please answer me why, e.g, he nominated only 9 Republicans in 4 years to the Ma. courts out of 36 choices. Cordially, Bob

So tell me where Rick is off base here. Everything he said is true. Milt is running a slash and burn campaign and doesn’t have a message. His own campaign staff telegraphed this week that they are very fluid on their Conservatism. I applaud Rick for making this an issue to voters. Milt can’t be trusted any farther than you can throw him.

Why is Romney running, anyway? His cult membership and his RINO ways will cause millions to either write-in their favorite or for Rick or Newt to surge at the Convention. Romney has no chance. Who the heck is going to vote for him besises RINOs?

Santorum needs to stick to attacking obama on the issues and forget about the moron romney. Romney is not going to stop his dirty campaign no matter what Santorum says , so it’s better to ignore his lunacy and move along on the issues.

By remarking on Romney it shows romneys slash and burn has his attention. He needs to move to attacking obama repeatedly on all issues. The time to drop the hammer has long past. I still support Newt, so whatever happens...happens.

You speak with wise wisdom.
Santorum can ruin himself, he doesn't need our help.
He will go down in memory (not history) as the man on the podium holding a child's toy to enhance his case.

"Take one for the team" Santorum was tasked to stop Newt.

Listening to him in the debates, there's little humble about failed senator "I, I, I, me, me, me."

“Romney only wins in states he will lose in November, and I am guessing he will pick a fellow RINO like Christie who wont be able to carry his state.”

He’ll pick a ‘conservative’ as the press and the GOP nemenklatura defines one, who is malleable and no threat. Something on the order of Dan Quayle, but less likeable and and at the end of the day amoral, or as the Gergen-Rove types would say ‘pragmatic’.

“I will support Romney. “

I’ll crawl over broken glass to stop Bishop Willard.

Great image. Captures Bishop Willard’s Ted Bundy style of charm perfectly.

“If it goes to a brokered convention, it will be someone like Ryan, Palin or Newt, who appeals to all sides. That possibility is every bit as realistic as any.”

It almost doesn’t matter. Bishop Willard and his minions will sabotage any other nominee’s campaign, just as they did last time, and just as they have in this primary. Willard is poison.

I did see it on a car the other day, at least with the zer0bama worked in on the 0. The sum of zeros I suppose.

Sickening for Santorum to say this. I’m disgusted.

Santorum: Zimmerman ‘has a very sick mind,’ motive ‘a malicious one’
The Daily Caller ^ | March 25, 2012 | Jeff Poor

Posted on Sunday, March 25, 2012 10:22:54 AM by Free ThinkerNY

On Sunday’s “Face the Nation” on CBS, Republican presidential hopeful Rick Santorum explained that his view of the Trayvon Martin shooting differed significantly from the one held by former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

Gingrich was critical of President Barack Obama’s reaction, but Santorum placed the blame on accused shooter George Zimmerman’s mental state.

“Well, you know, obviously, I’m not privy to what’s going on in someone’s mind,” Santorum said. “Obviously, in my opinion, someone … has a very sick mind who would pursue someone like this. This is clearly a heinous act. You know, there are a lot of people who have a lot of distorted views of reality. It’s a tragic, tragic case. And my heart goes out to the parents, too. I can’t imagine what they’re suffering, losing their son in such a horrific way. All I would say is that, whatever the motive is, it was a malicious one, and a very, very tragic one.”

Have you watched the clip? It looks like the CBS person was trying to go for a 2-fer against both Newt and Santorum.

I can barely ever force myself to watch/hear MSM spokesholes. I prefer to read transcripts. I don’t have a TV and my eyes and ears are not used to seeing the MSM. It’s extremely painful to see.

The transcript with Santorum was selectively edited by the Caller. Hold your nose and watch the video.
