That's MUCH better than Mittens and that's good enough for me. Also.... He is from Penn... That's huge. Obama can't win if he loses Penn. He lost his last campaign in Pennsylvania, how popular is he there? I don't know, honest question. |

If you are going to vote for a candidate based largely on the fact that they hate homos, then you deserve to lose the election.

At this point all I am concerned with are the judges the president will nominate/appoint and I think santorum will nominate/appoint more conservative judges than romney. I could be wrong though. |

Santorum is a half-wit. I'd vote for pretty much any other candidate. He won because (a) he's lived in Iowa for the past several months, and (b) he flew under the radar while Bachmann/Cain/Perry/Gingrich all beat each other for the lead of the conservative wing. The most interesting thing I saw was how close Gingrich and Perry were. I can see the conservative vote coalescing around Perry in subsequent primaries. Santorum will fade out because he has no organization in New Hampshire and South Carolina, Paul will fade when we get to real primaries that can't be flooded with independents and democrats, Gingrich has too much baggage, and Bachmann, Huntsman, et al don't seem to have any traction.

"He's a Christian" or "He's anti-gay" aren't reasons for me not to like him. His history on spending is pretty bad, that I don't like. Otherwise he's entirely "meh".
At least I could be persuaded to hold my nose and vote for him. I could not and will never vote for an anti-gun Socialist like Romney. |

What Santorum's voting record and stated positions do not convey are the important elements of electability, his personality, and the philosophical underpinning of his positions. I have huge issues with him philosophically, but even if I didn't it wouldn't matter because he's not electable.
Santorum's electability problem isn't that he's a dispensationalist, or that he's a bigot, or that his election guarantees a wider war in the ME, or that he doesn't believe in the fundamental principles of our nation as outlined in our DoI...those things can be overcome in politics, they don't sway elections. Santorum's unelectable because he's a prick. It's not his fault, he's not a malicious prick, he was born that way and can't help it, but it doesn't change the fact that he's got all the charisma of his namesake. He isn't going to go anywhere and the farther he does go the more damage he does to the party by association. |

Y'know, this thread is a perfect example of what I've loved watching during this election cycle.
For the last three and a half years, all everyone's been saying is "the Republicans could nominate a retarded 6-year old and I'd vote for him over Obama." Now, everyone spends the next ten months pissing and moaning about every tiny little detail about every candidate. Wonder why we lose? |

Your point on Bill Clinton is right on, but.............I would say we lose because people bitch and moan because there isn't a PERFECT candidate. Noone, noone, noone, noone, noone (is that enough people?) is going to have a stance on issues that makes every member of the republican party happy. After people (read Paul supporters) decide that the nominee is not the perfect candidate they refuse to cast a vote for him/her. When you fail to cast a vote for an alternative you are supporting the incumbent, thats just the way it is. People always say that its the independent vote that makes the difference. The independents dont mean a damn thing if the base is, or conversely is not, fully mobilized and get to the polls. |

I do not like Santorum, and I particularly hate how he dishonestly attacked Bachmann in the debates, but it goes deeper than that. I don't like how he has no problems dumping billions of dollars into Africa, I don't like that he said my responsibility is to my country, not myself. He's a collectivist.
Additionally, I do not like his stance on abortion. Stating that Plan B is abortion is just stupid, it's no different than the regular birth control pill, and I also find it disturbing that he would like to end abortions without any exceptions. He also seems hell bent on continuing to ratchet up the war on drugs and would ban pornography. I've also watched every debate, I've yet to hear any substantive ideas on tax reform, just vague generalities (unlike Cain's 9/9/9 plan which I loved and Perry's 20% which was also desirable). What's good about him? He's pretty solid on guns, and doesn't seem to like Obamacare, but deep ideology is important to me, and I want to see someone who can say "you know I don't like what you're doing, I don't agree with it, but that's what's great about this country is you can decide how to live your life without the government looking over your shoulder" Santorum isn't that guy. He leaves a terrible flavor in my mouth and I hate the prospect of having to vote for him, much less having him in the White House. Might as well elect Dave_A.
