I ask all Freepers who attack Rick:
“Who are you helping? Newt is finished and unless Santorum stops him Mitt will get his 1144. It's a two man race now between Rick and Mitt and you are attacking Rick? Getting 74% (almost impossible but not impossible--not like Newt's nonexistent chances) of the remaining delegates is going to be hard enough without self proclaimed "conservatives" helping Willard by smearing Rick."
So if you want Mitt you should admit it.
We are seeing it with our own eyes with santos. It is called a person is Innocent until proven to be guilty. What side is that so hard for the santos people to understand. Was Ricky a witness to the shooting? Does he have the evidence to go on a national TV show to pronounce a man’s guilt. What is happening to our side.
WHY do so many supporters of various candidates assume that pointing out/discussing problems their candidates have means a vile attack has occurred?
Every candidate has had their warts argued over and over here. A supporter who cannot acknowledge their candidate has warts deserves as much derision as the candidate, perhaps more so.
I had high hopes this election cycle would end with a bona-fide Republican conservative I could heartily support. Those hopes have vanished, I will vote third party for the third presidential election in a row.
But I will NOT stop pointing out warts when I see them....perhaps if enough do it also we may in time be blessed with a candidate our founders would at least consider for the job. I'm sure they would pass on the current crop.

I don’t think anybody except Rick is smearing Rick. So Rick Santorum says a bunch of stupid stuff and we should look the other way? That makes sense. Or, Rick says a bunch of stupid stuff but we act like he didn’t say it so the mainstream media will ignore it? I’m sure that will work. Or better yet, Rick says a bunch of stupid stuff, We pretend it isn’t stupid and that Rick is really smart and says stupid things because of the stress of the election, you know like Obama’s 57 states.
Truth is truth. Santorum for whatever reason is going around with his foot in his mouth. Having your foot in your mouth and then having someone see it does not mean the person seeing you eating your foot is a shill for Romney.
One statement is a slip up. Several is evidence that Rick is not ready for the Oval office. I would rather have Paul than Romney. I would however rather have Romney than Obama. 3rd party equals Obama. If anyone thinks Palin is “wildly” popular with anybody but right wingers they are not getting out enough. I’m glad to be a right winger, I would love to see a President Palin but I am not an idiot or ignorant of the facts. As good as Palin and Newt might be neither are electable. Paul might be but I doubt it. As horrible as it sounds I am afraid I will be made to hope for a president Romney. Nobody did this to Santorum, Santorum did it to us.
