This guy lost his Senate seat in PA. So, I guess he believes that qualifies him to be President (Twice in 2012 and 2016). I can’t believe there are some people still throwing money at his candidacy.
Romney and Jeb are gonna need someone to throw spears at Cruz and other real conservatives
If losing something along the way invalidated a candidacy, there’d be darned few left from which to choose!
What was the margin of defeat, vs. the probable margin of fraud?
While we may agree with Santorum in deploring some forms of social behavior, this hardly qualifies him as any form of Conservative. He misses the most essential point of any form of Conservatism, which is understanding who is supposed to make what sorts of decisions.
Rick has been quite willing to have Congress or the Federal Administration exercise powers they simply do not legally have, in order to suppress undesirable behavior. That is the sort of utilitarian totalitarian philosophy that we saw in Communist & Nazi countries, but it is in direct conflict with American Conservatism, and the carefully stated grievances in the Declaration of Independence.
I will admit that occasionally Rick sounds good on the platform--so long as he does not explain how he would accomplish his social objectives.

Rick’s a good guy, but he is not going to win a national race.
You’d have to be on the ground in PA to understand the quirky, bass-ackwards politics here. The average voter is socially quite conservative, but on economics they fall somewhere between Rich Trumka and Karl Marx.
So an economically leftist Democrat like Bob Casey, who can talk a good game about being socially conservative, is virtually always a shoo-in here.
Democrats here only really get their nads in the wringer when they start talking about gun control.
