I must say, after last night, I kind of prefer Santorum over Newt or Romney.

Posted by Jovian (aka Jovian) Jan 27 '12, 10:59

but if Obama wasnt to be president, I think I would rather have Rick be over Romney and especially Newt.

Newt is vile and Romney comes across to me as more and more phoney week after week.

odd - I was thinking he had an off night and thought Romney did rather well? Did Newt seem condescending to anyone else? -- nm - JenBro Jan 27, 11:01 2

uh no - encyclopedia pixie Jan 27, 11:00 19
- Dont get me wrong, I don't like any of the candidates. And up till now, Romney was best of the worst, but Rick strikes me as more genuine than any - Jovian Jan 27, 11:03 18
  - Sure, he genuinely wants to help blah people, but not the homos, he just wants them to quietly go away. - mafic Jan 27, 11:11 3

    - dude IM? that is not the case at all. -- nm - Jovian Jan 27, 11:14 1
      - I know, but he is. -- nm - mafic Jan 27, 11:14
  - The thing about Romney that makes me laugh... - Mel Profit Jan 27, 11:08 10
    - really? because he made the point last night that Newt was doing that in his campaign ... funny. -- nm - JenBro Jan 27, 11:21 8
      - Romney is a Republican Governor of a ultra-blue state who passed a universal health care bill that was the basis of ObamaCare. - Will Hunting Jan 27, 11:23 1
        
        I would totally vote for Blue State Romney. It's kind of like McCain, I don't recognize the presidential candidate version of him. -- nm - spamlet Jan 27, 11:52

        The IM depends. - Will Hunting Jan 27, 11:24 3
        
        Yes, but only to the tune of 50K...does he die? - Mel Profit Jan 27, 11:26 2

        He would do anything. Anything. -- nm - MDH Jan 27, 11:24
    - right exactly! -- nm - Jovian Jan 27, 11:09
  - Santorum is very genuine. He's genuinely scary in his beliefs. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 27, 11:06
  - You mean you don't consider turtling up a foreign policy plan? -- nm - Stephen, Australian Pirate for the day Jan 27, 11:05 1
