* Romney - himself not sure what conservatism is and which party he belongs to, passed and is proud of
* Gingrich - a self proclaimed progressive who wants to build a moon colony. I shit you not.
* Ron Paul - a certified loon who wants the world to burn with Iranian nuclear fire. A man who oversaw a racist newsletter carrying his name.
* Santorum - I had my eye on him at the beginning, not in a good way. And here's just an example of what we might expect from this particular candidate:
Would-Be President Rick Santorum: It's Critically Important We "Talk About" The Great Moral Hazards of Contraception and Non-Procreative Sex
"One of the things I will talk about that no president has talked about before is I think the dangers of contraception in this country, the whole sexual libertine idea … Many in the Christian faith have said, “Well, that’s okay … contraception’s okay.” It’s not okay because it’s a license to do things in the sexual realm that is counter to how things are supposed to be. They’re supposed to be within marriage, for purposes that are, yes, conjugal … but also procreative. That’s the perfect way that a sexual union should happen. We take any part of that out, we diminish the act. And if you can take one part out that’s not for purposes of procreation, that’s not one of the reasons, then you diminish this very special bond between men and women, so why can’t you take other parts of that out? And all of a sudden, it becomes deconstructed to the point where it’s simply pleasure. And that’s certainly a part of it—and it’s an important part of it, don’t get me wrong—but there’s a lot of things we do for pleasure, and this is special, and it needs to be seen as special." Glad we've gotten all the Big Things squared away so we can now focus laser-like on the sin and moral emptiness of people having sex while avoiding pregnancy.
I take almost anyone over Obama, almost - Ron Paul is a big no - no, in my opinion. Santorum's comments here and in the past just make me uncomfortable regarding his chances - or his agenda. The country is on the verge of an economic collapse - a global calamity leading to who know what kind of catastrophic domino effect. Perhaps going back on women rights and societal evolution is not the priority we should put front and center (or at all...).
