Santorum is running? I never knew.
Gotta love how these wannabe pundits who have never lived in Pennsylvania, have likely never been to Pennsylvania, and probably can’t even spell Pennsylvania, have nonetheless gained such keen and exclusive insight into how people here think.
Santorum called into the Mark Levin show about a week ago. He was incoherent. It is sad what happened to Rick.
GOOD GRIEF! Santorum is HORRIBLE! A Hillman RINO republican brought here by Elsie Hillman herself to beat Doug Walgren. His ONLY asset is his Pro-Life stance. Outside of that he is like Heinz and the rest of the GOPe!
I have lived in Pittsburgh all my life and been to the Hillman estate several times. My parents were active in the republican party here. That family defines GOPe! It’s one of the reasons I refused to register republican!
For the life of me I can’t grasp why some FReepers think he is presidential.
I really do like Rick Santorum, he’s one of the three candidates to stand with the citizens and the rule of law.
He’s not getting elected to President.
I wish he would run against one of our feckless Senators, since he lives in Virginia now.
Wow. This is dehydrated rock hard stupidity.
The only candidate who has a chance of surpassing Trump is Cruz, who has legitimate conservative credentials, is second in the polls, and has a great ground game.
But Santorum? What a joke!
“For the life of me I can’t grasp why some FReepers think he is presidential.”
Sweater vests...
Totally agree. This is coming down to Trump or Cruz.
The author of this article should have quit the hard stuff a long time ago.
Stopped reading here. Interested in thoughts, not venom.
Run a drug test on the clown who chicken scratched this faux article.
What is this I don’t ev
“For the life of me I can’t grasp why some FReepers think he is presidential.”
“His ONLY asset is his Pro-Life stance”
I think you answered your own question. Regrettably.
LOL. very funny.
Death is easy. Comedy is hard. Political comedy is impossible.
“...the vulgar poster child for inherited wealth..”
No bias here.
Even the "he should appeal to the lower middle class" argument is suspect, because patently he does not or we wouldn't be having this conversation. After all, due to television exposure even the lowest-of-information voter recognizes The Donald (and probably Cruz as well at this point) but it is highly doubtful if he could pick Santorum out of a small police lineup, and frankly, it's highly doubtful if I could. That's going to be a bit of a problem come Election Day.
I'm guessing from the text of the article that Hillyer has allowed his personal dislike of Trump to drive him to a thoroughly silly conclusion. Trump losing any contrived television "debates" is no longer any determiner of political success. We crossed that bridge. And Santorum's failure to become recognizable as the champion of any particular issue has doomed him to a pasty anonymity. Time to move on.
LOLOL
