I do not believe this about Santorum. I like the guy and most of what he stands for. He resonates with people who have lost their good jobs to corporatist greed, and he is also solid on social issues. BUT, I am with Ted all the way, and I hope that Rick decides against running, if Ted is in, that is. Huck IS in it to usher in an establishment zero. Bob

I liked Santorum when he emerged as the conservative front runner last time. What did him in is he kept talking about compromise. We don't need compromise. We need a candidate who sticks to constitutional conservative principles and articulates them to dissatisfied US citizens. That would be almost everyone.

We've got compromisers (or downright liars in campaigns) as a majority in DC now, and we still get the shaft. There is no compromise with evil.

I think the ideal would be someone with a proven track record of voting the way they talk once they get to DC. That would be TedCruz, Jeff Sessions, just a small handful of others.
