The Right Scoop
The great thing about this Republican primary is that all the candidates get their moment in the sun and then get ripped by the competition when they get close to "top dog" standing. We'll see if Santorum can take the heat and continue to rise in popularity. All the Republican candidates have some warts, but Santorum appears to be the closest we have to a tea party Conservative. If he continues to do well, his early uninspiring showing could easily turn into genuine excitement for the Right that has not yet been seen for any candidate except for the bump Newt got for going head to head with the debate moderators.
Rick Santorum has the potential to be our man to boot Barry from the White House. Godspeed to you, Rick!

I am still a Gingrich fan, but seeing how Rick Santorum handles himself is very impressive. He has been and will remain my second choice. Now if Gingrich and Romney/Rino will stop duking it out maybe the republican party can gain back its image as a much better party than the democrats and the Obama regime can be defeated.
I like to hear Krathhammer rag on Obama but his opinions about Republicans or Republican candidates mean nothing to me. Lets face it these talking head have to come up with something to talk about every day, it's their job. Most of the time what they say is just background noise to the real problems most of us face every day. Of course if their annoying Obama and Democrats I get a kick out of it and sometimes it can be informative but overall it doesn't effect my decision making.
Santorum has no experience running anything even coming close to the Federal government. This is not about the election of class president. He is a total novice.
I see no upside to wanting Santorum for president of the United States of America. I can't even believe that serious thinking people want someone who hasn't even run a Kool-aid stand for president. Oh wait! deja vu.

If you're a fan of Santorum, I'd see why you'd hate it, but attacking an opponent is standard fare in politics.
drphibes....
I think you need to learn how liberal he is. I suggest you do some research on ''the Libhammer''. Here is but a few of his many liberal positions.
On domestic issues:
Krauthammer is a supporter of legalized abortion;
an opponent of the death penalty;
an intelligent design critic (anti God);
an advocate for the scientific consensus on evolution (Darwinism), calling the religion-science controversy a "false conflict;"
a supporter of embryonic stem cell research using embryos discarded by fertility clinics with restrictions in its applications;
and a longtime advocate of radically HIGHER energy taxes to induce conservation.
Those are NOT Conservative positions and people like Krauthammer are to be feared not embraced.
A big thank you to the great states of Missouri, Minnesota and Colorado for standing up for American liberty.
That was 30 years ago. He has made fun of himself for that. That's like saying you should discount Rick Santorum because he endorsed Benedict Arlen Specter in '04.
Yeah, he's only the most read conservative columnist in the country (as well as George Will) who gives his honest reflection of things and turns out to be right most of the time.
But then again, some guy with a made-up word is probably right about this one. /s
Yes, you are correct, but how long ago was that? Almost 30 years ago? I was quite different politically back then, too. Easily swayed by feel-good nonsense and slick advertising. I voted for Reagan both terms, but I was not the staunch conservative I am now. I don't hold a history 30 years ago against anybody, if since then, they have proven to have grown wiser and more grounded.
I agree. Sometimes, I strongly disagree with him, but for the most part, he comes from a place of reason. He is quite the success story just on a personal level. I never realized he was in a wheelchair, or what the history of his life is. I was quite shocked to learn it. So, when I disagree with him and my hair lights on fire, I remember the many times I agree with him. More often than not.
Isn't it something how so many conservatives in this country have a gutteral dislike for Romney? It's like a gut feeling - a knowing - that the guy just isn't what we want or need right now. This isn't 2008. We don't trust Romney, and we are fed up with being told who our candidate is going to be. The lies aren't working with so many of us. Negative ads only propel us forward conservatively speaking. Not all of us, but many of us. I can look at Romney, and just know he's not conservative. I can listen to him and know it. I can look at his record, and I can see exactly what he is. Another McCain, who will lose badly to Obama. Nope. No thanks. Nada. Not this time.
You are correct! Krauthammer is a Carter liberal masquerading as a Republican.
(the worse of the worse)
If they do this, I think it may well backfire. Mitt never defines himself, just tears down others. When he tries to define himself, he stutters trying to remember his talking points or ends up saying something dumb. Fail.
Mitt Romney drop out of this race you moderate/liberal! No matter how much you attack Santorum or Newt it will never make you more conservative then they are because you're not a CONSERVATIVE!!! You might have a nice family but that doesn't make you conservative, you might be a good business man but that doesn't make you a conservative. You're a Corporatist not a Conservative! Take your out-of-touch corporate butt out of this race and stop splitting the true GOP and conservative base.
Mitt reminds me of my old governor or should I say governator of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was a huge disaster for our state, he was the one who was going to fix things after a horrible recalled Gov. Gray Davis, He was the rich guy who campaigned about being an "outsider" he quickly became an "insider" and started compromising with democrats raising taxes/pushing global warming cap-n-trade because he wanted to be "liked". That's why I will never trust you MITT ROMNEY when you brag about being an outsider, because you been dying to be an INSIDER for YEARS!!!
Your harddisk might be the culprit,either lack of space or you need to defract your hard disk
In this 2008 interview with Laura Ingraham Santorum praised Romney at great length — contradicting some of what he says today. In the interview, Santorum calls Romney a “true conservative” and says he “is someone we can trust.

Krauthammer up to his old tricks again. Stating the obvious to give a compliment to a conservative just to set us up for when he tears him down.
I can guaruntee that Krauthammer will be criticizing Santorum very soon. This is his modus operendi. He gives tiny compliments just to give himself credibility to attack the conservative. He is squarly in Romney's camp and, therefore, an Obama supporter by proxy.
I don't trust this guy for a second.
Wrong. He initially was for Romney and explained his reasoning. Lately he has been very critical of Romney and said he doesn't understand conservatism.
When confronted if he is in the tank for Romney he distanced himself from the candidate.
Let's see if my prediction holds. He did the same thing to three other Republican's in the race and two of them are now out.
How can a pundit be responsible? Endorsements are way overrated and don't mean anything. They don't sway people who already support a candidate and at this point that is nearly everyone. Anyway, he hasn't even endorsed anyone.
The reason why those candidates are out is because they really weren't presidential material. On paper, Rick Perry was. But to say he is out of the race because of Krauthammer is nonsense. How many gaffes did he need to make so that in your head he would be viewed as not able to beat Obama.
Michele Bachmann was a pretty empty suit.
Herman Cain, who I was a big supporter of, really killed his chances after the women incident. But especially after his non-answer on Libya during an interview with a Wisconsin newspaper.
Did you catch the dig that the ''Kraut'' gave to Santorum at the end.....''I don't know if Santorum has the money to compete''?!?!?!?!
Hey Krauthammer....how about a good plan and good Conservative ideas you dope! Oh I forgot you(Krauthammer) are a liberal hiding in a republican coat.....
Give me a break...Santorum has the credentials, the plan, and thhe grass roots support. With that and winning states...the money will flow.
GOOoooo Santorum Gooooo!!!!!
Santorum has no credentials to be president of the United States. None.
Romney has more credentials in his little finger than Santorum has in his whole body.
Unfortunately Romney should be running as a Democrat.
Newt is the only candidate with the credentials and plans.

Six months ago, if you had told me I would vote for Rick Santorum, I would have said you were nuts... yesterday, I did just that. Don't let anybody tell you he can't win.
Same here in Missouri. Gingrich wasn't even on the ballot, which is fine with the way he has been running his campaign lately. Paul was tempting(as a protest), but I chose Santorum. I've got issues with Santorum, but compared to Romney they aren't worth "getting upset" about.
Lets look at what actual leadership and solutions look like, shall we?

Pathetic Romney trying to slam Santorum, on earmarks and raising the debt ceiling.. HAHA that's all you got? Screw you Mitt, you were in favor of the biggest earmark ever the wallstreet bailout! We all know how much Mitt Romney likes safety nets
