Look, some of the late polls even had Santorum running within 3 points of Mitt Romney, but he got beat by 12 or 13 (they are not finished counting.) percentage points. Romney won with conservatives, with Independents and with women. Understand that Romney's victory is nothing short of a landslide.
And Santorum gives a speech, afterwards, declaring his conservative and consistent credentials.
While Mitt has business experience, Santorum was born in the general area. While Mitt was setting aright the Olympics. While Santorum was busy voting to double the size of the Department of education and funding Planned Parenthood, Romney was busy signing one veto after another, as governor in Massachusetts. He vetoed 800 pieces of liberal legislation as governor, and, still, some want to pretend that the man governed as a moderate/liberal. How wrong is that?!!
Mitt is nowhere near perfect, but it is becoming evident that he is our man for this campaign season. Newt would be good but it looks like the air is totally gone from his sails. And Rick? Well, he can't stay on topic and he has no practical, non-congressional, experience . . . . . . none; you know . . . . kind of like Obama.
Is Santorum a conservative? Of course, But, so is Mitt and Newt. I think it is too early to declare a "winner." We are eight months out. It is fine with me if we wait until July to start hammering the nails into Obama's political coffin. That gives us four months. More time than that would be anti-climatic. Don't believe me? Look at Obama. He has been campaigning as hard as possible and his approval numbers still suck and he is unable to pull away from his opposition at all - and no one on the GOP side is campaigning yet !!!
Talk about anti-climatic!! What is another Obama promise; another bail-scheme, another speech on "fairness" is not anti-climatic ??
