I pray conservatives get behind Rick. He is the most consistent conservative for our time. Absolutely not 100% perfect , but neither was Reagan. Just say no to the establishment! No to rhinos!

[gov_bean_ counter]

No he isn’t.

[Houghton M.]

The Catholic haters on the right will resist him and the socon vote will split between him and Huckabee or Perry or whatever and we’ll end up with Jeb.

I wish it were not true, but the socons are their own worst enemy. And I speak as a socon.

[cripplecreek]

He was my 3rd choice but I think he was the best choice all along.

[LuvFreeRepublic]

Good grief. The only thing worse is for Huckabee or Keys to run again.

[ilovesarah2012]

He’s a boring white guy. I am tired of them. He’ll get less votes than Romney. A good conservative maybe, but I doubt he can win. I want someone who can win. Right now, Hillary is the frontrunner. I cannot stomach the thought of her after 8 years of Obama.

[TSgt]

Sweater-vest boy doesn’t stand a chance.

I expect someone to offer Palin, who I adore, next.

It just isn’t going to happen.

[bert]

Rick is dull and boring and has no charisma and is dull and boring and will never be President.

Also...... he is a loser

[Viennacon]

He doesn’t stand a chance in 2016, in my honest opinion. The field will be much more conservative than the 2012 field, with people whose social conservative credentials are as solid as his, which takes out his USP.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Can we not think outside the box with someone new, or are we destined to lose again? We desperately need black/hispanic candidates to split the racial vote. It is about winning, not about running the most honorable candidate.

[KevinDavis]

Lets get behind a guy who lost his Senate seat in 2006... NOT!!!

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Please—no more retread candidates.

[csmusaret]

Rick Santorum was the most unlikeable person in the primaries. If you are a fan I’m sorry, but that is just how he comes across to most potential voters.

[Doogle]

he has to be in in order to be counted out

[TexasFreeper2009]

um... I think we had just about enough of old frothy in 2012.

[SECURE AMERICA]

Get’s my vote.
I am done with the Republican Elite Party. Twice now I have swallowed my principles and voted for the RINO’s that the party has put up for Presidential election and that had zero chance of winning. My franchise is more valuable to me then that and I will not waste it again.
Put a CONSERVATIVE up or piss off..........

[WilliamRobert]

This man inspires no one, nice enough guy but well we know where nice guys finish.

[Alberta's Child]

Rick Santorum doesn't have a chance in Hades of getting elected President. Never nominate a candidate for the White House who has held no elected office since he lost his last race in his own freaking state.

He seems like a decent guy, but I don't think he's cut out for politics and has spent far too much time in government and inside the Beltway for my liking.

[Jim Noble]

Losing elections is an excellent predictor.

Rick Santorum is a loser. He is, in fact, a BIG loser, having lost a US Senate seat that he held in his home state by a landslide.

Like George Allen, like Rick Santorum, the number one rule of elections is STOP NOMINATING LOSERS.

Nothing personal, just business.

[Durus]

Santorum is a model pragmatist politician that plays the "conservative" card for votes and mouths all the conservative talking points but when push comes to shove he has lied to his constituents, supported liberals over conservatives, and would almost certainly lose his home state.

I'm amazed that people fall for this snake oil salesman time and time again. He's almost as bad as Huckabee.

We need to get behind a real conservative and we need to do it soon without the distractions of pseudo conservative like Romney, Santorum, Ryan, Huckabee etc.

[COBOL2Java]

Yay! Let’s get every retread loser running again in 2016! Get the Republican primary chock full of ‘em! It’ll make Jeb’s job all the easier as the conservative candidates go after each other like they did last round. Sigh...
