Rick Santorum

Thank you, Colorado Republicans

by: Zappatero

Wed Apr 11, 2012 at 05:21:08 AM MST

I'd like to thank, once again, Colorado's Republican caucusers (sp?) for picking the losing candidate in their recent presidential vote. Rick Santorum was never going to win the presidential election, but by picking the most far-right candidate they helped push their party further into Wackville and forced the eventual winner, Willard (Not the Rat) Mitt (Not Tagg) Romney to both abuse and take the abuse of the ever-present, gelatinous Santorum. Google that, political junkies!

Last time, when the (R)'s picked Mitt, he dropped out 2 days later. This time, Rick gave them a few more days of self-satisfied harrumphing before accepting the inevitable.

I'd also like to remind Colorado Democrats, and John Hickenlooper, that the Old School views of Rick Santorum are very close to the true views of our favorite Republicans and very far from the common sense views of most Coloradans. And if Jared Polis and Michael Bennet can get on board the President's side in stressing the need for millionaires like themselves to pay a fairer amount of taxes, we might actually build some electoral synergy over the next few months.

Much of this is obvious, I know, but bears repeating until the key players on our side buy a clue....

Dear Colorado Republicans,

Thank you for selecting, once again, someone by the name of Rick Santorum, who will never be elected President by the American people...not even with Tim Tebow, or that RINO Jesus himself on the ticket.

Sincerely....

Democratic Super PAC Leader Gives Assessment on Role of Super PACS in 2012

by: tjwalker

Tue Jan 24, 2012 at 10:42:11 AM MST

Posted by AmericanLP in Press Release, Press Room
TJ Walker, founder of AmericanLP, a Democratic Super PAC, gave his assessment on the role his organization and other Democratic Super PACs have played in the 2012 campaign:
"We couldn't be happier! Our goal all along has been to tarnish the Republican brand and to diminish the chances of the GOP's only candidate who isn't completely insane-Mitt Romney. Thus far, we have produced and run 5 negative ads targeted against Mitt Romney and his phony, plastic, non-conservative views. And we like to think that we have played at least a small role in helping Republican voters in the first three states commit mass political suicide by voting for Rick Santorum in Iowa and now Newt Gingrich in South Carolina. At this point, we couldn't be happier if the Republicans nominated Rod Blagojevich as their Presidential standard bearer. The general perception among GOP insiders is that their party is in a state of chaos and that as weak as they might perceive Obama to be; you cannot beat an incumbent President with another candidate who is seen as widely detestable by majority of his own party. In other words, it is PANIC time at the GOP."

2012 Election And The 11 Republican Dwarves

by: Bill Egnor AKA Something The Dog Said

Tue Jan 25, 2011 at 07:29:00 AM MST

Will 2012 be the year of the Republican Dwarves? Let me through some names at you;
Mike Pence, Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, Mitch Daniels, Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum, Haley Barbour, Herman Cain, Tim Pawlenty, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann. Now being political junkies you are probably going to at least know those names, with the exception of Herman Cain, who is the founder of Godfathers Pizza (a so so chain that has had decent success) who is also a regional Rightwing radio talker. But try to think outside your political knowledge bubble for a minute. Do you think anyone really knows these folks?

Sure folks know the last VP candidate from the Republican Party. She has made a business of being famous, but it has only worked because she stays either to mediums that don't allow back and forth or safe outlets like Fox News. Her response to the Arizona shootings showed that she really does not have what it takes to be president no matter how popular she is with her fans.
