He lost. I really thought I was not going to see him again but it seems difficult with these guys. They never go away.

Why is it important for tv shows to incite these hAteful people on their show??

He's an accomplished loser, which in Republican circles counts as expertise.

See: Gingrinch, Palin, Guiliani, Santorum, etc.

He's so far out of the norm and all he does is bring negativity to any panel...he shouldn't be allowed in polite society but he's sure right at home with that other asshole george will.

As annoying as he is, our side can't damage the GOP half as well as putting guys like him on center stage for all to see.

They drag out the same old failures over and over, keeping the vitriole alive. How else do you explain the many incarnations of Newt, et al.

Disgusting.

They probably try but the sane ones will turn them down because it's suicide to be a Moderate Republican these days.

Which is PSU's law school. Yes PSU turned down his offer to keep his papers for posterity! given his views you'd think he'd have gone to Liberty or Bob Jones U.

My kids attended the same high school as Santorum. That Catholic high school rarely talks about him as being a famous alumni as he doesn't represent the values taught at the school.

Or so he seems to me. I honestly believe he would LOVE the power to spread his god's message with a blowtorch.

Not many politicians scare the crap out of me. He does.
