Why the FUCK do people like Santorum that much?

[BUSHLIED]

The question we should be focusing is WHY don't they like Paul and immediately correct that....

Santorum is the "Xian candidate" and that is THE MAIN reason why people are voting for him...he also gets the anti-romney vote from the tea party. Just like people voted for obama because he was black, they'll vote for a christian because they are christian..people are frogs, sheep whatever... most people have no grasp of politics...sadly. Damn idiot tube has got them, not to mention their preachers etc...

It's hard to correct when conservative talk radio hosts continually spread disinfo and outright lies about Paul.

that is true, we've all seen the deliberate lies...but the campaign has to work to correct the misinformation and get out in front it when they can...the campaign has done a very little of that but mostly has been passive or reactive. It's never too late...there is no clear winner yet...

Again, Ron should host another FP rally speech and make a big deal about it...

Not just talking heads, it's the entire mainstream media.

I've lost pretty much all faith in the campaign at this point. Take the newsletter fiasco. They should have called a national presser to publically condemn them before the media could gain any traction with the story. Also, why is Ron not going on conservative talk radio shows? Whether we like them or not, the Limbaughs, Hannitys, and Levins of the world have major sway over most Republican demographics, especially seniors and boomers, groups we continually underperfom with. Look at the Iowa crosstabs. We WON the under 45 demographic. We lost with 65+. If we attract just 5-10% more voters from this demographic we run away with the caucus, and the election is looking very different.

He's the only one viewed as being the "social conservative candidate." This is why Perry, Pawlenty, Bachmann and the others viewed as socons HAD to go.
