Santorum is probably much too young and green for the slot.He also would have to smooth off some rough edges to sit at the high table, and it's those rough edges that make him popular with the base, but not so if he aspires to a leadership role.He maybe better suited at being a Committee chair, which gives him the flexiblity to be Rick and hammer his fave issues.Being a Majority leader is perfectly suited to someone like a Lott.

I think it was better that Jesse Helms chaired Foreign Relations all those yrs rather than being SML, even though he was the most right wing guy around.Get the right guy for the right job.Would Jesse have been as good as SML or chair of the Foreign Relations Committee would you have prefered...Arlen Specter??lol

Horses for courses.
