An Obama-Santorum Matchup Would Be Good For The Country

Obama vs. Santorum is the only contest where real issues would be the focus

Mitt Romney was the inevitable nominee — until he wasn't.

In order to sustain a lead, a candidate's message must resonate with the heart and the mind. Mr. Romney's cakewalk to the nomination has been stymied by the inability to get anyone excited about his campaign. He has supporters but not believers.

Rick Santorum's message resonates with voters' hearts and minds (this week at least), because he is a true believer. He believes in his message, and his message is consistent with core Republican values. What gave Mr. Santorum the edge in Iowa, Minnesota, Colorado and Missouri can give him an edge in the general election against President Barack Obama.

IF Santorum becomes a real possibility, it will only take a short list of his wacked out comments to make him a laughing stock. The voters in PA figured him out a long time ago, and it won't be long before the rest of the country catches on. Up til now no one has taken him seriously. Obama is smiling as are all those who want him reelected. Romney/Santorum might have a chance to beat him, but there are those who would support Romney but desert him if he does a John McCain and picks an ultra extreme nut to be a running mate. The republicans have a real mess on our hands.
