At least he admits his priorities; PARTY before COUNTRY.Santorum's debate performance was poor in terms of persuading people that he could be trusted on matters of actual principles to conservative issues.
He gets minor positive points, however, for at least owning up to his record. Honesty should count for something.
yeah but he was more making excuses.
I do not disagree. He kind of confessed that he voted contrary to his stated political philosophy, but couched the confession in terms of, "but it had to be done at the time due to the 'needs' of the Party . . . . "
Well, no. You did it, Senator. But you didn't HAVE to do it at all, much less for those petty "reasons." MAYBE what the Party actually needed was a person with a bit more spine.
MAYBE that's what the Country needed. And MAYBE it's what we are looking for. MAYBE you aren't the right guy to be looking AT.
And yet ... honestly, he'd still be a VAST improvement over the incumbent.
