No it doesn't
What's the dominant religion of the good ole PR big guy?
Roman Catholic, which has been one of Romney's best demographic groups so far in this primary calendar.
Do you think there are a higher percentage of in name only Catholics in the NE or in PR? Not really the same thing.
Worst political gaffe ever?
Someone needs to tell Rick to speak english rather than zealot
From that article:
"It strikes me that Rick Santorum is about the most determinedly anti-political top-level politician I've ever witnessed. No matter what state he is debating in, he refuses to find some wiggle room on issues where his position is at odds with a deeply held local position. For instance, tonight he has made zero attempt to provide any sops at all to the majority of Floridians who opposed drilling in the eastern Gulf -- not even any verbal nods to the idea that of course it is important to keep beaches clean, etcetera."
I pretty much think that Santorum is certifiably nuts and a massive liar but I have to respect the fact that he does not change his position on issues based on the group he is talking to. At least you know what you are getting with him.
Yup. Someone who can't even acknowledge that the other side may have a legitimate point, but that in his opinion the balancing act comes out in the other direction.
Unless, of course, enough time has passed so that he can pretend that he didn't repeatedly take the contrary position while in the Senate (e.g., No Child Left Behind).
