I for one, have always supported Santorum and am disappointed he dropped out, even though it was a long shot for him to win. And I have NEVER faked support for someone. That’s just stupid....and hypocritical. Why even open your mouth...why lie? That just doesn’t make any sense to me.
Like I said, I’m on the fence about who to support now. Personally, considering who is left, I’d rather see Newt win than Romney OR Obama...but I’m not sure that’s even possible. It saddens me that Romney has been pushed as the front runner and the GOP establishment is getting their way.
But I know voting for the lesser of 2 evils, is still voting for evil. And I also know, voting for 3rd party or write in, would more than likely, give the election to Obama.
And I repeat, Santorum had and still has legit supporters. I also liked Rick Santorum. He was not my favorite because I did not think he would be able to beat Obama. Unlike Mitt Romney, I could have easily voted for Santorum in the general.
Think about it and it makes sense. If you're afraid you'll get banned for posting pro-Romney comments and articles and you're addicted to FR, what do you do? Become a fake supporter of another candidate which you think has no chance of winning and just wait it out until the primary's over.
There are many good people like you who were real supporters of Santorum. That's not who I'm talking about. I'm talking about the Romneybots who hide behind another candidate to avoid getting zotted.
