Supporting the Worst Republican?
Rick Santorum stated yesterday that he supports Mitt Romney and will be meeting with Romney aides soon.
Just a very short time ago, during the Wisconsin primary, Santorum called Romney the worst Republican to run against Pres. Obama. Now, he fully supports Romney. Talk about flip-flopping or weasel-wording. Well, it will be interesting to see what develops from the meeting with Romney aides. In the attached link, Romney aides called Santorum "unhinged". Now, they are going to make nice? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...n_1378713.html |

Mitt Romney looks like the best Republican to run when viewed with respect to his probable backing of various moderate policies on issues like the environment, abortion, taxation, etc. If elected, I bet he will doing further evolving of his various views just like President Obama has done since 2008. |

Somebody should start a thread on where Romney stands on the issues, but then they'd have to update it every ten minutes.

So Democrats never flip-flop and support their adversary after losing??
I kind of remember Hillary wasn't too keen on Obama in 2008................ In fact, she said only she and McCain (remember that?) were ready to lead this country. http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-502443_1...72-502443.html Hillary Clinton Mocks Barack Obama During Campaign Rally Daily Kos: In desperation Hillary Clinton Goes Negative against Obama Hillary Clinton crossed the line with slash and burn, says Gary Hart and Keith Oberman |

Well, Richie's post looks like the "typical diversion" he accuses me of doing. If you have to go to Keith Oberman, Richie, for your quotes, you must be scraping the bottom of the barrel. And Gary Hart? I honestly did not know he was still a political voice since his debacle upon his boat - "Monkey Business"? Anyhow, Hillary got to be Sec. of State. If Romney wins - and there is that as a fair to mid'lin possibility - do you think Santorum will get some post like that if he supports Romney? |

What many of you are calling flip flopping others recognize it to be reconciliation. History is replete with parties, entities or individuals having devergent views only to come together for the better good. Unity is how a great people harness what they have to accomplish their purpose goal mission. They have the maturity and foresight subordinate themselves for the better good
Santorum would have been very wrong and actually viewed as a poor loser had he not reconciled. |

I would think Santorum should apologize publically and personally to Mitt for calling him the worst Republican choice for running against Pres. Obama. Not any other words but to say he is terribly sorry for saying that and have it be a face-to-face followed by a hearty handshake. That would show true unity to accomplish their mission. |

Emotional outbursts are becoming a pet peave of mine because they are too common and celebrated too readily not only on all the reality shows but poor manners are leaking on to the news networks, etc. We need more Bill Buckley type of discussions but I am afraid people have forgotten how to. OK I'll get of my soap box |

Well, I imagine the televisions in those states will be saturated with political ads until November. It would be a good time to be selling ad space to political campaigns, wouldn't it? Some people are going to be getting lots and lots of money.
Unfortunately, we are part of that group that has to listen to the blather from both sides. |
