Santorum is a fiscal liberal/social conservative--the opposite of what I'm looking for. Club for Growth showed that as US Senator, he was a tax (or borrow) and spend guy.
If he were to get the nomination in 2016, I think I'd probably end up voting libertarian in the general. I doubt very much that I'll have to make that choice, however.

He ian'r going to get to first base this time. Anyone who wants to think: because or the past few campaigns the GOp will go with number 2 needs to rethink this. It amounts to the libs are hoping the Rpublicans will repeat. Santorum, like you say is the opposite of what the GOP wants and the country wants. Last time around it had more to do with: anyone but Romney. The insiders were still trying to talk Christie into running as late as early summer. This is not 2012. I do agree, I would have to vote for anyone other, if he did get the bid, but it will never happen. We have too much talent out there this time.

Was watching Fox News (Cavuto) last night or maybe the night before and they said "the big donors" are going to give their money to Bush, Romney or Christie which tells me the "big donors" are really Wall Street donors and that's because there is a bubble around them and the NY media. They need to take a look at the 2014 election map. There was a tea party woman also on that segment but Charlie Gasparino (the other "guest") didn't let her get a word in edgewise and neither did Cavuto. I think she was going to say, "So then they lose...again."
It is abundantly clear after the budget vote that the Republican establishment is going to shout down and/or starve the right wing of the party. Republican leadership ran to the mics to denounce Ted Cruz. A few hours later, Bush announced he is releasing his emails. It looks like Wall Street has their man.
