Rick is the most moral presidential candidate we have, and most people can see that. Too bad some can’t.

HE/His accomplishments SAYS IT BEST!

He is running a solid 4th in a three man race, quite an accomplishment don't you think? Who else could do that?

RE: Santorum is the one helping mitt, it’s design that way. He didn’t get the job done for Mitt in ‘08 at deceiving voters - so he’s getting another chance at it a different way.

And where’s your evidence for that? If he wants to help Mitt, he would have gotten out of the way now and made it easier for Mitt to cruise instead of losing so many states.

“On abortion, he is one of many senators who vote pro-life. The difference is that he is personally responsible for making sure a lot of these votes occur in the first place: He was an architect of the effort to ban partial-birth abortion, a strategy that energized the pro-life movement and allowed it to go on the political offensive.”

Rick Santorum gets things done, because he is a FIGHTER!

I just heard it, too. And she said that the economy is important but there’s something more.

That’s why the anti-Santorums’ mission is to keep calling Rick a liar. They’re wasting their energy on trying to convince the Santorum supporters that Rick is a hypocrite, and they get furious when they realize we “Santorumites” aren’t buying. We recognize that “something more” in a candidate when we see it.

“his wife came along to where he was and he pointed his finger at where she was to stand next to him like she was some dog.”

You are clearly delusional. He should point out to his wife where she should stand. He should tell his kids where to stand too. These things are on TV and appearances are important. His wife clearly loves him and respects him. His children do too.

Don't you get tired of constantly lying about Santorum? Don't you have anything useful to do?

Or maybe you are just jealous because Santorum has a loving and caring family and you just hate to see see other people happy when you are so miserable.

Or maybe you are jealous because the author says women like Santorum and you have failed so often with the ladies.

Rick is a decent guy, who will honor the office of the presidency.

Oh, please! How so, by not knowing by what he's doing? He knows he has way way way way way way less knowledge that NEWT does. If he honored it, he would drop out. But for Rick, it's ALL about him.

You are enthralled by an 'image' - the way it was designed as he doesn't have a record to lead this country. So he LIES about Newt would does.

A sucker is born every minute so 59 cousins are no biggie but expected.

Moral men don't lie and deceive.

You seem to have no trouble lying, so I guess that makes you immoral.

Get a life, instead of trying to kill of Santorum, work on Obama a little or maybe Romney, the only guy who benefits from your constant screeds.

Obviously you didn’t read my post, because I was saying this insulting article plays in to the notion that women shouldn’t be allowed to vote. BTW, I am a “mom in America.”

Tell me, do you really find this article uplifting? It’s idiotic pablum! What conservative woman with a brain in her head would actually DREAM about a politician? Okay, he loves his wife and kids. So does Obama!

Gingrich thinks he is THE smartest person in the world

How do you know what he thinks? It's more that you are projecting!

He, having to deal with what's around him on the stage and in DC - HE IS. It's not easy being around liars and do nothings without an original thought where everything is for 'themselves' and not AMERICA.

Mark Levin also supported Romney against McCain. Disagree with Santorum all you want, but here you’re perpetuating something false.

I don’t vote with my privates, but I am a woman. I think it’s insulting to always categorize the female sex as having to picture their candidate as Dad, Husband, or Teacher.

With that said, after the Cainplosion, I looked with my BRAINS at the remaining candidates. Yes, I did stand up and cheer or laugh out loud in joy at Newt slamming the media shmucks at the debates. But with my pschology background I had successfully figured Newt out years ago, and he was still Newt. I considered him STRONGLY, then discarded him due to my deepest belief that very needy individuals seeking fame and fortune through the Presidency HURT US AND BADLY (see Clinton, Obama). Newt is on the right, but he is deeply insecure which colors his behavior. It doesn’t negate his speaking ability or vision, it just sometimes overrides them.

I didn’t care for Romney and Bachmann was fading. So I decided to start looking at Santorum. He had what Palin had, that I’ve been saying for a few years that I wanted in a President: the stones to be a bold conservative, and to unabashedly explain and support the Constitution and conservative principles to the nation.

He also LIVED by his values. When you have a child with differences, you understand how precious each life is. It’s not only about abortion: life is about those who cannot represent themselves well. Grandpas with Alzheimers, adults with cerebral palsy, kids with Down Syndrome. Yes, unborn babies also. This is at the top of my religious beliefs (Judaism) where life is praised for its own, because of the speck of Gdliness in each.

His goals to get manufacturing back in the country are great. I do buy products made in the USA but there aren’t many. Most of our stuff comes from anywhere but. I’d like to see the country get back to having a safe middle class. The infrastructure of the family plays a part, as well as jobs without so many regulations and lawsuits.The more onus you put on employers, the more jobs go elsewhere (see California).

So I decided to support Santorum. It really was a decision out of thought. Yet thereafter, when I heard him speak about Bella, or when he said what he said about church and state, not church vs. state, and some of the other “gaffes,” I found that I believed them and was secretly glad he said them, even if maybe he should have waited until after the inauguration! :)

I am a proud Santorum supporter, the only babywearing Mama in the Whole Foods parking lot with a Rick bumpersticker — IN California. But it wasn’t because his fuzzy sweater vest reminded me of Dad.

Big deal - just because someone else did it? LOL!!

I don’t live my life that way. That’s why there are polls - the dumb need to know what others are doing.

Rick is a liar - live with it.

I don’t need to know the “whole story”. Adultery is adultery. Adultery with an intern is adultery with an intern. That’s systematic lying, no matter how much you Newties want to whitewash him.

If he honored it, he would drop out. But for Rick, it's ALL about him.

If you were making the same arguments against Sarah, you would be toast, but you can be thankful that JimRob is endorsing Newt.

Your attacks are beginning to get rabid, and you do nothing but coarsen the discourse. I can find this kind of mindless attacks over on DU, do we really need them here?

Thank you! It angers me to no end that conservative women are seen as not able to actually support a candidate based on facts and issues. This beyond stupid article proves that we thinking women have a lot of work to do among our peers.

I’m a Newt supporter, but totally understand your reasons for voting Rick. I just don’t agree. :)

Thanks for the reminder. Just sent him more $$. This is really our last stand here, people.

Newt cannot get the votes, even though his supporters here are as verbally adept (and pretty darn mean) as he is.

This our only chance to have anyone more conservative than Mitt Romney in our White House! Donate to Rick. Skip a dinner out. A latte. it could change your life, or only the Supreme Court...
