His candidacy disgusts me even more than the Newts. Can you imagine a President Santorum, Google page and all? It's just not fathomable to me.

Lots of folks in the Republican base believe the same things Santorum believes.

It's just on a whole new level.

during these GOP primaries - not just Santorum, but:

Rick Perry, who has been described as George Bush without the burden of intellect.
Michele Bachman, a raving religious fanatic with a grasp of the workings of government that rivals that of Sarah Palin (a vapid, self-obsessed fool who was taken seriously enough to be a VP candidate).
Herman Cain, a serial sexual harasser who had no experience in government at all - not even on a city council.
Newt Gingrich, a egomaniacal repeat-offending adulterer and former House Speaker who stepped down after being fined for ethical violations.

And Romney, the front-runner, while arguably a bit more qualified than the other clowns, is nothing more than a pathetically hollow droid.

It's just mind-boggling.

They mouth all the right-wing talking points on cue.

Like PJ O'Rourke said, "They are convinced government doesn't work so they get elected to prove it."

About half the Country is more conservative than you are...

and a quarter of the Country is WAY more conservative than you are

Not only is Santorum averse to progress, he wants to take us backwards.

BTW, probably more than half the country is more conservative than me, but I can deal with the middle of the road.

The man is absolutely scary. Plus, he is everything you said he is.

I guess I'd blame it on the Republican-led school boards, who have been busy dumbing down our children's education for decades. They laid the path.

about his social stances.

How you get to be in his place, I think, is you decide to become a politician, you have a gift for meeting people and getting people to like you, and for saying things in public that a lot of people seem to like. You wear a suit well, you dress up well, you can shake a lot of hands, you have a lot of energy to go at it all day and travel. Ba-da-bing. You're a politician with votes. All you need is some people to fund you, and you're in. Even a lousy politician will get some votes.

to him. And to others like him. How does someone like Gingrich sustain as "serious" candidacy? Only one way.

A good place to start is the recent book "Republican Gamorrah" by Max Blumenthal.

And then they all climbed in to the little Klown Kar for a few short fast trips around the circus arena.

Santorum will wind up shoveling shit for a living before it is all over and done with because he will end up in their circus following that bigass GOP elephant around after he drops out of the fantasy he is currently deluding himself with.

Only Bill O'Reilly takes Santorum seriously.
But, then hell, O'Reilly read an e-mail that was sent to his program from "Heywood Jablowme" over the air once, too.

his campaign.

try reading the online comments section of the local paper, yahoo, etc for just a peek into the morass.

The home of hate groups, Tom Corbett, Mellon-Scaife and a whole host of crazy.

the office of the presidency represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron. - H.L. Mencken, 1920
