I really hope and pray he's the GOP nominee. I think he's the best candidate to beat Obama. As he becomes more and more know, he continues to grow support.[/left][/font][/color]
homeschoolmom Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Our caucus precinct was standing room only. It was packed.
Papist Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I guess Team Mitt is now in the process of digging up dirt on Santorum.
BG45 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Punxsutawney Phil was wrong, it wasn't six more weeks of winter, it was six more weeks of Republican infighting. Edit: I can never spell Punxsutawney right. Edited February 8, 2012 by BG45
dominicansoul Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I like Rick, too.... Unfortunately, I don't think he can beat obama...one thing is, He's catholic....and I heard evangelists on television saying they wouldn't want a mormon, much less a Catholic... people are sooooooooo dumb..........

MIKolbe Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 agreed. last election cycle when Romney was running, my evangelical co-worker said he would never vote for him because you had to be stupid to be a mormon. my tounge still has scars from all the biting....

[/quote] Well we don't know if it is true that obama is a muslim, but remember when obama slipped up and said something about his muslim religion, and when he was sworn in he did it again in the library... without a Bible? If it's true he is muslim... then idk why someone would vote for a muslim over a mormon, and for someone who supports killing babies... Edited February 8, 2012 by i<3LSOP

[/quote] If he were really a Muslim, why would he have wasted his time with that one preacher's church? If he were a practicing Muslim, someone would have noticed him praying five times a day. Just sayin'. Ugh people are so dumb. It shouldn't matter what religion one is. Sure, it helps you get a bigger picture of who the person is and what values they have, but I'd even vote for an atheist if he or she had the right positions on policy.

Muslims don't do thinks like, I dunno, GO TO CHURCH, or say that they are NOT Muslim. B) Even if he was a Muslim--which he is not--who cares? What business is it of ours?

kujo Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Rick Santorum...not a fan, to say the least. I'd prefer Romney or Paul over him, but would certainly prefer him over Gingrich.
Sarah147 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 That's fantastic that so many are supporting Rick!!!
Laudate_Dominum Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I saw this earlier today: [url="http://www.fplaction.org/the-catholic-case-against-rick-santorum/"]The Catholic Case Against Rick Santorum[/url].
Laudate_Dominum Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Just saw this: [url="http://www.fplaction.org/rick-santorums-cruel-conservatism/"]Rick Santorum's Cruel Conservatism[/url]

(shoot...it's the MO here as well) "Social justice" to them is normally hippy jargon for socialism or some other non 'merican malody. They identify with what they agree with (say abortion), and disagree/ignore where they don't. On the flip side of the same coin, those who lean more to the left do the same exact thing, just in reverse polarity. Both claim a more moral highground in what they accept and reject. It would be nice to have a catholic candidate who took seriously ALL the Church has to say. Methinks it would confuse everyone.
