He lost because he WENT ALONG WTH THE ESTABLISHMENT and backed Arlen Specter; Santorum acted like a good little GOPer and went with Bush and the DC establishment RINOS to back Specter. We all know how that turned out. Toomey, the conservative running against Specter barely lost, so Santorum's endorsement might have mattered. Also, Santorum ran against Casey, son of a staunchly prolife and popular Dem governor.

Hopefully, Santorum has learned a thing or two. I believe he can beat Obama, if the voter fraud can be held to a minimum. I still believe Newt is the smartest man in the room, but Santorum with, say, Col West as VP running mate could definitely beat Obama.

This regime has to be stopped.

I largely agree with you as to why Santorum lost his Senate race. However, Specter did deliver two SOTUS justices. You may disagree as I do with Santorum on his social values focus but I believe his motives and sincerity. He also has a good conservative record and a fine intellect.

I believe he can win because he can be the Republican rock star...young,feisty appealing to a wide range of people. That’s how Obama got the votes. Many vote personality..what kind of personality did Juan McCain have...certainly far from that of a rock star...more like a rock!
