Good luck with that.

Santorum will get killed in the general election and he has felt no the in the GOP p[primary.

He is whiny and thin skinned, but then so is the current POTUS.

I have always said Santorum has a chance.
I personally don’t like the guy. He’s mighty smug for me.

Actually Michael Reagan does not agree with you. He is saying that Santorum could win the general because he is likable and has a great story. And he is the most conservative of the candidates. I think Michael Reagan is kicking himself tonight by the way he is talking about how disappointed he is with Gingrich. He says he is becoming the Guliani candidate and feels that he wasted tonight big time.

How about Paul siphoning off a few delegates. Anything to keep Mittens from a runaway at the convention.

I have no disagreement that conservatives should ultimately unite. But, 2 things.

(1) Today’s, Rasmaussen poll was R34-g-27-S18-P12. Newt is simply not going to drop out while he still leads Rick in the polls- particularly with the advent of his strong states.

(2) If Newt did drop out now, Ronmey would carpet bomb Rick with negative ads— As it stands now, Romney likely doesn’t know who to go after.

I support Newt over Rick, for one reason- Newt did mastermind the defeat of the 40 year Dem rule in the House- that’s just fact. And therefore, I think he’s is infinitely more capable of any of the current candidates to turn the country around in 2013- he has that proven record.

I’m sure, if he doesn’t do well in the Southern states, and Rick continues to climb, Newt will ultimately drop. But, that remains to be seen.

You have said that about 100 times. I know that. 12 March Santorum will get ALL of the earned delegates. Tonight is about MOMENTUM!!! I love it even more than the delegates because if you turn on every news program right now it is ALL about Santorum!!!! You cannot do better than that!

If we choose based on what the Press will do to the particular candidate then we pre-narrow our field to DNC approved Democrats.

The subject was studied once and it was found that women who conceive from real forcible rape are more likely than other women to NOT want an abortion. The attitude most expressed was not wanting to respond to one crime by committing another. Raped women who are forced or cajoled into abortions have the worst psychological outcomes. I don’t remember the name of the study. It is, I believe, pre internet and I can’t find it again and didn’t think to copy it when I saw it as I was pretty indifferent to such things then. That was one thing that began to pry me out of that indifference.

I may be wrong but I feel Newt is tanking and Rick is peaking at the same time. The opinion polls will bear this out soon. Mitts machine will begin trashing Rick in earnist but people are frankly tired of the negative battle between Newt and Mitt.

My problem with Santorum is that he just isnt that conservative.
He panders to evangelicals like no ones businesses and this election isn’t about evangelicals, its about the ECONOMY.

Obama is setting this guy up to have Santorum make the debate about religious dogma while detracting from the economic issues

Since when is contraception and abortions this years issue?

Santorum is taking the bait.

And again I will state that I understand and agree with the man on a lot of these 3rd rail issues, but he will get creamed in the general election.
