I have been hot and cold on Santorum over the years, but having seen him speak passionately about life and liberty in person at a fundraising event for a local crisis pregnancy center, I do believe the man is the real deal.

It's late in the game, but not too late. I am starting a Santorum for President Ping List on FR. If you want on, please say so on this thread or send me FReepmail.

Executive experience?????????????

It’s one thing to win. It’s another to govern.

What’s Rick got in this category?

Best of the group we have running.

He can actually appeal to what's left of the Reagan Democrats across the Great Lakes region.

Santorum on Fox and Drudge today:

In What May Be Final Turn in GOP Roller Coaster, Will Santorum Get Chance at Ascent?

Peaking at the right time, perhaps?

Houston, we have a problem. Rick and other conservatives jumped in this race from the start. What did people do? They put their hearts into people who were never running and trashed those who were. They dismissed conservatives who were willing to put their ass on the line and actually enter the race.

Now, not a damn one of them has a chance because idiots put their money on those who were never going to put their ass on the line.

Now we are stuck.

Good job. We are fools.

I’m torn. He didn’t submit petitions for Virginia, so I can’t vote for him. Of course, Gingrich and Perry got knocked off for “bad signatures”, so if that ruling isn’t reversed I’ll have nobody to vote for.

Santorum could possibly catch fire, but I doubt it. Perry on the other hand already proved he could catch fire, and while he’s only embers now, you can re-ignite them.

My problem is that right now, Santorum’s success is going to hurt Perry. If I thought Santorum could win Iowa, I’d support him. But if he can’t, all he can do (along with Bachmann) is split the conservative vote, guaranteeing that our choice in this election is Gingrich or Romney.

What's going to hurt Santorum is his total lack of charisma.

It shouldn't matter at all, of course. Aside from the insane decision of supporting Arlen Specter over Pat Toomey, the man has a rock solid history and would make a first class President.

I'd like to say that I have Faith in the American people to pick the obvious candidate, yet the country is getting filled up with idiots (”I don't like the way he talks”/”Jon Stewart said he was dumb”) and non-Americans (reflexive democrats/liberals) that I wonder...

Clearly the best candidate at this juncture.

Add me please. He’s last on the sample ballot in NH, so he’ll be easy to find on 1/10/12.

BTW, there is a Joe Robinson on the NH ballot from Newton, MA. He has no chance at all, but he does have the Robinson name....

Please add me. I will vote for Santorum, not because he’s perfect, but because he’s the best conservative remaining.

Put me on the ping list, please.

I have had the highest respect for my former Senator.

In the summer of 2006 it was obvious that he would be defeated, in part because of the ignorance of the Pennsylvania electorate who (rightly) detested all incumbents because the state legistlature had enacted a massive pay increase for themselves in the wee hours of the morning at the close of the fiscal year—the electorate wrongly confused this US Senator with their State Senators. The other part of Senator Santorum’s defeat was the name recoginition accorded to Robert Casey, Jr., who lacks the pro-life convictions of his late father.

Senator Santorum was willing to give me a significant amount of time after he had spoken at a conference, in which we talked about the above, and I was able to thank him for consistent efforts for the very least among us: Those yet to be born.

Please add me to the list. Its very late to get him to the top, but there simply are no other mainstream GOP candidates worth considering who are still standing at this point.

I will not vote for Romney. Period.

The only way I could hold my nose and vote for Newt is if Santorum was his VP.

Otherwise, I will not be voting GOP this election.
