Lol, Santorum would’ve been the worst disaster of a Republican presidential candidate ever. The majority of Americans simply don’t vote for the social issues Santorum represents.

Evidently the majority of Americans didn’t vote for the issues Mitt Romney represented. If we change or drop the issues that define conservatism then we become just like the democrats. Mitt Romney would have been infinitely better than any democrat, but I cringed every time he talked about working with democrats and “reaching across the aisle”.
Someone needs to figure out how John McCain and Sarah Palin received more votes than Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan!
Remember the words of Ronald Reagan in his famous 1975 CPAC speech...

“I don ‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying, “We must broaden the base of our party”—when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.

It was a feeling that there was not a sufficient difference now between the parties that kept a majority of the voters away from the polls. When have we ever advocated a closed-door policy? Who has ever been barred from participating?

Our people look for a cause to believe in. Is it a third party we need, or is it a new and revitalized second party, raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people?”

What we need is someone to articulate and champion conservatism not running from parts of it!

Most Americans do support his social values. The problem is that we as Republicans cower when the media mocks them. Any pro-lifer should be able to go on offense.

Pro choice only means the choice to kill your unborn child. It doesn't mean the choice of schools or doctors for children after their born. They don't want us to have a choice in what to feed this child. They are only pro choice in killing babies. If children are our future, what does it say about democrats when they want to kill the future?
