It seems to me they are all way to far to the right to be elected. Normal, sane people won't fall for the stupidity.

Now I really want to puke. Not that I don't appreciate your post, it the answer that is giving me indigestion.

It saddens me that this repugnant idiot's star is on the rise.

I always want to vote for 'NONE of the Above'

Hey Myriad,

Krauthammer is such a total ass. No wonder he thinks Santorum is a quality candidate. He totally hates Romney (not that I'm very fond of him, either). I think when the country gets to know Santorum they will be shocked at some of the stuff that spews from his mouth. Santorum is like Bachmann's twin separated at birth.

we are going to win r.

My dad, a staunch supporter of the GOP since he first voted, feels embarrassed by this assembly of clowns. He's a retired businessman, a guy who wore a suit to work every day, and all the religious hoodeeha that's been tied to the GOP puts him off. I suspect there are lots like him, and that things will change once Mr. Huntsman puts his dignified feet in.

Now another big-name commentator, Michael Gerson, has some good words for Santorum - http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/rick-santorum-and-the-return-of-compassionate-conservatism/2012/01/04/gIQATYRfdP_story.html?wpisrc=nl_most

Among Santorum's compassionate things is urging more colon-cancer exams, haha. (Not that they aren't a good thing, of course, but, like, SANTORUM...)

David Brooks also has a column that is mostly favorable re Santorum.http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/06/opinion/brooks-a-new-social-agenda.html?_r=1&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha212
I guess the memo went out...

I really dislike it when God is brought into the mix in politics. They hide behind platitudes to get the votes.

Finally, a columnist who doesn't think much of Santorum. http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-extreme-rick-santorum/2012/01/06/gIQArxqpfP_story.html?wpisrc=nl_cuzheads
"He’s a nice-guy zealot who should never be allowed anywhere near the White House."

And my current *fave* opinionator, Gail Collins:

Death is for keeps.

Great post Myriad! Loved your comment about Santorum encouraging more colan cancer exams....that would lead to the production of more Santorum, hehehe. Rated:-)

Thanks for sharing this and making this star that much less bright.

It's so strange, when I try to step back and take in the larger picture: with huge unemployment Obama is a sitting duck for defeat. Yet the Republican clown show makes me want to say, "Are you kidding? These goofball clowns are the best you've got?! If so, the Democrats have nothing to worry about." And now Gingrich's attack ads, (inspired by the #OWS movement) openly raise the question of the consequences of predatory capitalism--and that genie, once raised, is not going quietly go back into the bottle! We need to keep bringing it up, again & again. Still, there is lots of time--several months-- to give Romney a make-over, invent heroic backstories for him, create ever- more sophistiicated ads and clever speechwriters, and surprise scandals (the joker in the deck), whether real or invented, to keep the outcome of America's biggest Reality TV show in doubt....I'm sure it will keep getting high ratings.

hm. gotta agree with this guy, in an upside down
alternate reality way:
"He's the one whose economic plan
is "strengthening" the family"
(speed up adoptions for worthy lesbian 7 gay couples?0

(i.e., establishing the sex police),
(good, hope they arrest anyone having brutal
narcissistic masturbatory coitus
with an athletic partner.
6 months celibate! the sentence)

because once family is properly enforced, the economy (somehow) will fall into place. And God will smile from the heavens.

god will smile when the family is happy.
whatever kinda family.
