Santorum: Might as well have Obama over Romney

[robert l. bentham]

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Thursday said Republicans should give President Barack Obamaanother term if Santorum isn't the GOP nominee and for a second day compared rival Mitt Romney to an Etch A Sketch toy.
Santorum reiterated an argument he has made before: The former Massachusetts governor is not conservative enough to offer voters a clear choice in the fall election and that only he can provide that contrast.
"You win by giving people a choice," Santorum said during a campaign stop in Texas. "You win by giving people the opportunity to see a different vision for our country, not someone who's just going to be a little different than the person in there."
Santorum added: "If they're going to be a little different, we might as well stay with what we have instead of taking a risk of what may be the Etch A Sketch candidate for the future."

Well if that's the case, then The Democrats should run Hillary. She is a pea from the same pod as Obama, but at least she would have a chance to win.

Santorum is right, here. Though it's not that only that Romney isn't conservative enough. It's also that Obama is centrist enough to make this true.

Marxism is the new centrist view?

BTW, there will be no difference between Obama or Romney. They are in will be bought and paid for by the same interests.

No, he isn't hard core Marxist enough for the Progressives is the problem.

Very true, and if the Progressives won't believe me, perhaps out of the mouth of your Prophet will sink in to you:

Billionaire financier George Soros thinks that, if Mitt Romney wins the presidency, there will be "little difference" between him and Barack Obama in the White House.​

Soros offered the reassuring news to liberals across Europe during an interview this week in Davos, Switzerland.​

As policymakers from Hong Kong to Canada pressed Greece and its creditors to strike a deal to cut the nation’s debt, Soros pressed in on GOP presidential candidate Romney:​

"Well, look, either you’ll have an extremist conservative, be it Gingrich or Santorum, in which case I think it will make a big difference which of the two comes in," Soros told Reuters in a videotaped interview.​

Who passed more Tax increases - Reagan or Obama. Bzzt! It's Reagan
Reagan too liberal for Republicans

What you guys don't seem to get is it isn't left = Marxist. To the left of Santorum you must cross the center line, for example, before you get to Marxist. There's many people in that Centrist group. In fact MOST of the Democratic Politicans are there.

You should read Marx to find out whether or not you just said something stupid - though that's probably not the sort of thing you want to know so not much motivation there.
