I swear this guy is on Meet the Press almost every Sunday! He wasn't on last week but I'm pretty sure he was on it the week before and possibly the week before that. I'd have to go back and see how many times prior to that he's been on it but it's been a lot, that's for sure.

Especially when you compare that to Mittens' appearances on the show - ZERO. LOL

Why is that? Is it because Santorum has less (or more) to lose? Is Mittens afraid that he can't control the questioning on the show?

What? Why?

Santorum needs the exposure since he can't afford to pay for TV time. There is no point for Romney to go on these shows right now.

Yep.

Romney's lead is so substantial he is correct to run a risk-averse nomination campaign at this point. Santorum needs to put himself out there.

Of course, Santorum is also running for 2016/2020 as well, I suspect.

Santorum is always on because he revels in saying crazy stuff.
(contraception, gay sex, anal sex, doggy style...)

Romney doesn't get on because he is afraid to open his mouth and let some stupid stuff fall out.
("I like firing people", "I don't care about the poor", "Wanna hear a joke about when my dad closed this factory and fired all the workers?"...)
