Everyone I know prefers Santorum, but they are afraid of wasting a vote. Somehow the message got out that Romney and Gingrich are the only ones who stand a chance.

The popular wisdom is that Rick is to conservative to win.

I fear they may be right. There are more grasshoppers than ants, and the ants are starting to leave.

Look around you. How many people really want the government to be smaller? How many GOP candidates?

When ever something happens, the first scream is to the State to help. Natural disasters, bad business, storms, etc. Few want to help themselves, most want a hand out.

Boards like FR can change that. I remember when everyone felt the same way about Cain but after the boards spoke out about voting your conscience.

You can’t waste a vote in the Primary - now in the actual Presidential election, another matter, but any vote against Obama is NOT wasted!
