It really says something about Mitt Romney's weakness that this guy is consistently running neck in neck with him, instead of being destroyed in a landslide as he would be against any half-competent politician.
As far as I can tell, the policies that Romney is running on are in no meaningful way to the left of those of Santorum. And for every time that Santorum mentions sex, Romney obnoxiously reminds us of his wealth.
Has Mittens said that gay unions/marriage leads to economic sub-performance over time? Is so, I would be interested in seeing that in text. Because that would suggest disingenuousness - or idiocy.
Not directly - but then again, what
does Mittens say directly when he's campaigning? There is this, though, from the Saint Anselm debate:
Obviously not the same thing - but that wasn't really my point. What I'm getting at is that Romney, while less likely to put his foot in his mouth over the issue, isn't campaigning based on a position any different from Santorum's. We could choose not to take his remarks at face value - but is there any good reason to do that?
