Yes, and Republican candidates should say and stand for what they truly believe and not try to pull the wool over the eyes of the voters by changing their views depending on which state they are speaking in. Santorum is a kook in my book, but I will give him props for being the most honest person in the Republican primary.
I can see him getting the Catholic vote away from Obama especially now that Obama is forcing Catholics to pay for others birth control, abortions etc.
I guess anyone who believes in God these days is a kook.

Catholics are not monolithic. Many use contraception and many disagree with the church's stand on contraception. Being an American Catholic is something of quandary for many. Santorum is on the fringe in the Catholic church as much as he is in American society.
BTW, you are distorting the facts. The DOH decision said non-church entities where employees are not required to be church members like hospitals must offer insurance policies that cover contraception. Abortion has nothing do to with it. You know it. Why say otherwise?

You must know that Catholics consider the morning after pill to be abortion so why distort the issue.
And we are talking about Catholic hospitals and schools that are an essential part of the church.
This could be a really big night for Santorum. He could win MN, MO, and Colorado today. Not much in the way of delegates but the press he would get for sweeping three states would be priceless.
I seriously doubt he'll win here in Colorado. There are a lot of Mormons here, and a lot of fundamentalist Christians who don't like Catholocism.

That truly was a fortunate turn of events.
Well, I thought it was about time they talked about the differences amongh themselves instead of bashing Obama day and night. The early debates were sort of a love fest among the Republicans, but it got nastier when the stakes got higher. Only one person can be the nominee.
surprised with this poll to be honest. Im starting to think Santorum would be the best guy to take on Romney
I just think he is too far to the right on social issues. Maybe I am wrong.
I know one thing, I am glad to have a new computer, I missed all this posting the past 4 days, from the crash of my old one to the computer guy installing my new one.
