Santorum whined that the media wouldn’t stop beating him up on social issues.
Anytime a candidate whines it isn’t attractive.
Newt is the weaker candidate and his whining reinforces this image among primary voters.
They can choose the whiner or the candidate who looks presidential.
They’ll choose Romney.
Good point, In fact he whined that the media wouldn't stop ‘asking’ him about social issues on TV when he loved to talk about them to those positively receptive to his opinions. (Newt led the way on that strategy.)
That is the kind of behavior that always worries me,
Romney has it locked up now I guess, so watch him change colors again as he moves into the general.
