On Rick Santorum

Neal Boortz : Democrats rip Santorum "If you want just a small taste of what it would be like to run Rick Santorum as your GOP nominee, look no further than a DNC email released over the weekend.  One part read …

"Rather than focusing on jobs, the economy, or any of the issues that matter most to Americans, he discussed man's 'dominion over' the earth, repeated his patently false claim that prenatal health care is a plot to force more abortions, and questioned the need for public education.”
"I received a lot of flak for my comments yesterday about Rick Santorum, yet not one person could explain to me how Rick Santorum would appeal to moderate or independent voters...."  

....There is only ONE  question you should be considering as you select from these four .. and that is which one of these candidates has the best chance of beating Obama.  That’s the focus of your decision … nothing else.   (Emphasis added)
Can you try to put yourself into the shoes of an independent voter for a second here?  You know obama(sp) is a failure, but you’re not sure the Republicans could be doing all that much better right now.  You’re willing, though, to take a good look at the GOP candidate to see if that is someone you might be able to support.
WSJ:  Sex, Lies and Rick SantorumThe politics of the double standard on social issues.   "There is, however, one area where Mr. Santorum needs to demonstrate a discipline it's not yet clear he has. That is the ability to resist the efforts to drag him out of the public questions into the weeds of theological debate."
...."Mr. Santorum cannot change the double standard. With a little discipline, however, he need not let himself be defined by it". (As happens in  the Neal Boortz article posted above.)

Procon.org has this on Mr. Santorum's political statements  This site lists what they consider to be "Positions are categorized as Pro, Con, Not Clearly Pro or Con, or None Found."


Rich Lowry: The Effrontery of Rick Santorum "The media has unleashed the hounds on Rick Santorum."
We have liked Sen. Santorum very much, but our research on who can get Obama out of the White House goes on. Nothing is more important than keeping Obama from another four years at the helm of this nation and we have yet to find a candidate who can tell America how he is to be preferred to Obama. It will be hard; the Republican will have to run against a celebrity who is on magazine covers and daytime talk shows and who promises to give us anything we want for free.
I'm beginning to lose confidence in the American electorate's wisdom, and this next video doesn't help much. TD

But these "skulls full of mush" will happily vote for any whomever is endorsed by their favorite celebrity.
