Santorum will definately not beat Obama. We need someone who knows finance, who is expert on economy. Who can Lead both party. Both parties will never agree 100% but they will vote with Romney to get things done because Romney will know what to say and do to achieve that. Santorum is a wining baby that makes excuses and Im tired of the blame game whomever fault it was! I dont care! Just get in there and fix the problem. If this country wants to get better then they need someone that is going to make things better not hand out Food Stamps and hand out money to everyone who needs it. Thats making it harder for the person who works (taxpayer) 50% of the country pays no taxes. Stop singling out a section of people cus they have more and learn from them. Businesses will hire if they stop scaring them about taxing the rich and they are not rich. They have less than what they had cus of Obama! Vote Romney 2012 — He has the exp. and knows what he’s talking about –We cant afford 4 more years of what we have had. Republicans will not work with Obama , some of the Dems wont work with him either. Im tired of the fighting. America dont mess this up or we will stay broke for the next 4 more years. By the way, I am a Hillary supporter that voted republican cus I saw this coming. Excellent speeches but nothing to back it up but band-aids. I dont care about party, I care about results –about Jobs, Jobs, Jobs– I dont want welfare or unemployment, I need for people that want to work to work and prosper and make money like the ones that everyone is trying to hate when the rich hire people not the poor! Vote Romney ! Obama will crush Santorum trust me. I live in a swing state and Repubs are down about 800k voters already. Obama has more money and he will buy all the tv networks and be all over the media like before with Hillary. I look at things objectively and dont vote cus of a color. I vote for job exp and knowledge and santorum is too closed minded for America. He’s conservative for Repubs. but Obamas supporters (Dems) and Independents will NOT vote for Santorum trust me. This is a liberal country. Obama still has lots of support, just look at the polls. They still love him regardless of his record, the deficit, the unemployment, the bad investment growth. You think govt is controlling now, you just wait til Obamas re elected, you aint seen nothing yet! STOP HIM NOW AND VOTE ROMNEY –HE’S OUR ONLY CHANCE — Obama had 4 years to prove me wrong and he has not done so. I cant give him 4 more. Again VOTE ROMNEY!!!

Implying that a true conservative would force his views and values using governmental power on the people.

Romney offers more depth, skill, experience and potential to bring America back to strength and prosperity. Santorum would be a sure loser in the general

My ideal Presidential candidate is a traditional liberal, not a fiscal conservative. If he were alive today, Franklin Delano Roosevelt would get my vote!

I’m a recent retiree with considerable savings, a defined-benefit pension and Social Security, having signed up for Medicare on my 65th birthday. My chief objection to Mitt Romney involves his ill-conceived plan to means-test Social Security benefits. This would cut my retirement income. When I retired I agreed to a FIXED income not a declining income! My pension could become underfunded and I could outlive my savings, hence Social Security is a necessity, not to be means-tested.

IMO there is a decent way to replenish the Social Security trust fund–without raising the FICA payroll tax! This plan would be to simply add a rather generous Social Security surcharge to all individual capital gains income exceeding $150,000. Let the very wealthy—such as Mitt Romney and Donald Trump–support Social Security–they are paying LESS than their fair share of income tax to begin with!

I plan to support the best candidate for President in November–President BARACK OBAMA. Hopefully we Democrats can then continue our run as a unified party in 2016 and 2020 by nominating Secretary of State HILLARY CLINTON for two terms. The strongest Republican candidate for President this year and in future years is probably…Florida Governor JEB BUSH. Unless the GOP deadlocks into a brokered convention, Gov. Bush will not receive the nomination.

One great thing about telling voters from the far right the absolute truth is that they can’t understand anything outside their own narrow view of the world. So here goes. People on the right should vote for Santorum for one simple reason: He cannot possibly win. His POV is repellant to everyone except you folks. So ignore Romney. He’s (no matter what he says) a moderate. That means he could attract more voters than Santorum in a national election. Vote Santorum and throw the election – you know you want to.

Santorum is a politician’s politician — the Pennsylvsnia Progressive. He endorsed the liberal Arlen Specter then like a typical Washington politician explains his actions away with excuses. Santorum is no doubt a social conservative. But that is only one leg of a three-legged stool. He is not a true fiscal conservative, voting to keep Amtrak. Again like a typical Washington politician explains his liberal vote away. Santorum is a man of excuses. “I did not perform well in Florida” because Romney had money. Well, another Rick had $15 million and does not have a single delegate to show for it. Another Santorum excuse “I did not compete in Maine” to dismiss why he came in third. You are right you do not compete. Romney does in every state. You say you are not running a negative campaign, but you name call Romney as “desperate” and “flailing” and accuse him of buying CPAC delegates. Mr. Santorum I do not see your great wins– your hair win in Iowa, an evangelical state you spent more time than anyone else and where a Mormon candidate was not expected to do as well as he did. Your great Missouri win of 138,987 votes was less than Mitt Romney’s 2008 third place win in Missouri with 172,329. You must not generate very much enthusiasm. Your Minnesota win was less than Romney’s total on 2008. He received 25,990 votes in 2008. You received only 21,932 votes which was less than McCain and Huckabee’s votes. I find your acceptance of religious bigotry to win votes among the evangelicals very disturbing. Closed door strategy sessions against Romney in Texas and compromising yourself as a Presidential candidate by the “laying on of hands” as an endorsement against Romney which to me violates separation of church and state. Jesus said one should not do their prayers and fasting and alms to be seen of men, for they have their reward. I respect you as a family man like I do Romney. I appreciate Ann Romney’s being an active part of Governor Romney’s campaign in addition to being a mother and grandmother.

The focus of this important presidential campaign should be on who is best able to restore prosperity in America during the next four years, not what sweater one wears or dislikes of a candidate’s hair. Gasoline prices are climbing again to a record high. This alone without any further international problem will plummet our fragile “economic recovery.” With Obama, it will be four more years of increasing government spending and entitlements, adding trillions of dollars of debt owned by the Chinese. What business, economic, or executive experience does Santorum have? He has been a government employee and lobbyist. When have you heard him speak where he does not just ramble in answering a question? During times of war we need a commander-in-chief. During an unprecedented economic crisis, we need an executive who has experience to bring people together to structurally turn our economy around and restore permanent prosperity. We don’t need a “condom man.” The Santorum ad shows him as a cardboard figure. That is about the sum and substance of this man’s experience to be President.
