This is not the president's job. To be a good role model, sure? To return "morals and principles" back to America? Nope. We are electing a president, not a priest.
Santorum will not be the next President, and if we nominate him we will lose in a massive landslide (which would take our House majority down as well). Perhaps some socons have a martyr complex?

Either way, Santorum is an after-thought candidate who only made it this far because he was the only non-Romney no one paid any attention to till the rest were gone.
