If Romney is the nominee for Republicans I have the feeling the press will JUST find out he is Mormon and will do Mormon exposes endlessly using the worst examples and the most criminal cult like leaders to frighten people.

Great, I’m sure one of those will end up beating Hussein. Please, give me a break. If anyone kicks the marxist madman out it will be one with an R beside their name.

Rubio misused RNC funds during the 2008 campaign.

Come on. Be honest. You don’t believe that Santorum bears any responsibility in this?

Denial and dishonesty are part-and-parcel of Santorum's presidential campaign if not his political career; it's not surprising it would be a theme with his activists as well.

Those RINO votes? He "took one for the team." His 18-point loss? Tough year for Republicans and Bush's fault. Squandering double-digit leads in MI and OH? Newt's fault. War on porn? Press's fault. He's got clean hands on healthcare ... Just ignore the '92 & '94 support for individual health insurance mandates, Romney & Specter endorsements...

His "I, I, I, me, me, me" chest-puffing is bizarrely juxtaposed with his cries of powerlessness, victimhood and lack of responsibility. Sorry Santorum, but I've gotten more than enough of that from Obama.

The “not on the ballot in areas of southern Illinois” is even easier to refute than the “not on the ballot in Wheaton” B.S., since Santorum’s best numbers were in southern Illinois. Here is a map of the county-by-county totals in Illinois. As you can see, Santorum won all but 2 counties south of Springfield in the lower half of the state:

http://dailycaller.com/2012/03/20/illinois-gop-primary-results/

In the two counties he lost in southern Illinois, St. Claire and Coles, Rick Santorum trailed Romney by only 1% in both of them. Here are the numbers reported in those counties. Pretty impressive feat...receiving thousands of votes when he “wasn’t on the ballot”, wouldn’t you say:


St. Claire county
Mitt Romney 42.5% 6597
Rick Santorum 41% 6,363

Coles county
Mitt Romney 39.1% 2,344
Rick Santorum 38.8% 2,328


Are there any more “not on the ballot” areas of Illinois where I need to list the number of votes Santorum received?

">> He wasn’t on the ballot in my district. << And which district would that be? I can show you the vote totals that Rick Santorum received in each of Illinois' 18 congressional districts and prove you're lying." Was talking to my neighbor about this yesterday, got annoyed and didn't vote cuz I was ticked off the lock was in for Romney.

Googled and found this from huffpo. "Santorum's campaign failed to submit any delegates in four of Illinois' 18 districts, according to Policymic. This cost the former Pennsylvania Senator 10 potential delegates"

Delegates Santorum/Gingrich Well I guess they did some switching....Its all too confusing for me.

According to that map, in 18 out of 28 counties that Romney won, Newt and Rick’s combined vote totals would have beaten him. And a lot of those were close enough that he wouldn’t have needed all of Newt’s votes either. I’m not clear how the counties relate to districts though. Are vote totals separated out by the districts available anywhere? It would be interesting to see how many delegates we lost due to the vote splitting.

Then, if Obama is elected, you will get just what you deserve. Unfortunately, the rest of us will get what YOU deserve, as well.

Not me, I think your answer was for psycho-freep, that’s where that quote came from.

I haven’t bashed anyone. I’m for Rick so that didn’t happen.

Here's the thing, CL: We're not getting what we deserve. We've sinned against a holy God and deserve eternal perdition. Every breath we take we increase our debt.

Corporately as a nation, we have mocked God to His face. By nominating someone who has bought his way to power and who has no strong principles, we demonstrated our lack of concern for our desperate position and condition.

2 Chronicles 7:14 cannot come to pass until we experience true hardship, famine, poverty. Do I want those things? No! I want to do what is right rather than what is expedient.
