Santorum on the way up

[spencer rifle]

Santorum wins Minnesota caucuses & delegate-less primary in Missouri; votes being counted in Colorado | The Ticket - Yahoo! News

I take that as good news, since I dislike him the least of the current crop.

It just shows that Rick Santorum can unite all people of all points of view.

How did Ron Paul do? Has he won anything yet?

 

[buckstopshere]

I lump him in as a zero with Romney and Gingrich. Loves war, hates freedom, loves spending money.

The new breed of conservatism!

But if your supporting him than good news for you.

Gettin' ready for the inevitable MSM beatdown. Should begin in 3...2...1...

Not all people.

Why the hard on for RP? He's the only candidate up there that cares about your freedoms and you mock?

He is a hater who hates... and right now he is hating RP....

Paul is now the only candidate polling nationwide that can beat obama.

Also, Paul is polling nationwide in 2nd behind romney for the noination

Listening to douchebags like Mark Levin just make me want to vote for Obama.

If Newt and Mitt are zeros, I'd give Santorum a .25 at best. He isn't quite on their level yet. I do have faith that he can get there but he gets the .25 (at best) because he seems to be a slightly better human being than the 2 joke.

Santorum is my worst nightmare. Worse than anyone else in the field, including those who have dropped out.

 

[Pocketman]

Just the latest version of "anyone but Romney." Fits the pattern of all the others who have risen against the GOP establishment, only to subsequently fall to Romney's money and organization. This too shall pass.

Would you vote for him, should he win the gop nomination?

Definitely, BHO has a secret agenda to disarm citizens if he wins again. At least thats what the N.R.A. says. And I believe it. BHO GOTTA GO in 2012. I think the question was for dross. I'm just sayn.

 

[Huzrjim]

I'll second that vote for Santorum or any Republican candidate over BHO!

If they are zero's, then we have a -45 in the White House currently.

He is also the only candidate that published a newsletter that ran racist comments.

Yep. For two reasons:

1. In our system, party trumps person
2. The bad stuff Santorum wants to get done is somewhat less likely to happen than the bad stuff Obama wants to get done

I'll tell you this much, though. Santorum's surge has accomplished at least one thing - it's made me like Mitt Romney a lot more.

Maybe I should reconsider my decision to give up bourbon.

I disagree with your second point, because I agree with your first. Party does trump person. If the GOP keeps the House, and takes the Senate and Executive, I think Santorum (R) will get just about anything through that he wants, because Republicans stick together, for the most part. Constitutional Amendment defining what marriage is, more spending, more pork, more war (drugs, Iran). With this brand of GOP controlling everything again, I expect nothing less than the Patriot Act 2.0.

In the general, I believe I'll vote for Obama for the Executive, and either R/I for Legislative to make sure nothing much happens for the next four years. Hopefully after that time, those man made Ocean Islands will be up and running, or I'll look into living on the moon. I won't be bullied into putting Romney, Santorum, or Gingrich in the big boy seat, if the Republicans are going to control the House and Senate as well. I don't think any of those three are real conservatives, or will slow down the train wreck, and I don't want Democrats to be able to pin the meltdown on Republicans, so that the D's hold power for the next 60 years. Idiots still say that FDR got us out of the Great Depression through public works programs and more government spending. If a crash is inevitable, and I believe it is in some form (SS, Medicare, Obamacare, welfare, etc.) I want to see it all come crashing down on a Democrat, so that they have no where left to slither to.

Wow this thread has some bass-ackwards reasoning in it.


What are the bad things Santorum wants again? I havent paid much attention to him, being that the media has influenced me to think he had no chance.
