Santorum's main problem? Aside from the fact that he's the extremist's extremist?

[FSogol]

It is that he doesn't come across as Presidential.

He's a sniveling little tattletale. He's a holier-than-thou Sunday School teacher who you suspect is having an affair with the Church secretary. He's the guy in your 3rd grade class who raises his hand and says, "Mrs. Marshall? Joey acted up when you left the room and Susie passed a note to Lisa." No director would cast him as the US President in any movie, no matter how farcical.

(Of course his extreme views and abundance of ethic problems don't matter to the GOP, but my above theory will doom the guy)

1. Santorum is the toadying high school hall monitor everyone hated

"Hey, you better get back to class right now or I'll tell the vice principal on you!11!"

[starroute]

2. And now he's whining that Romney and Ron Paul are ganging up on him

Totally third grader.

5. "Mrs. Wagner! Willard and Ronald are picking on me."

[Ikonoklast]

6. This is why Mrs. Wagner has a pint bottle of gin in her purse.

She calls it her "Ricky Medicine".

7. LOL, I was going to add that Mrs. Wagner was going to have gin for lunch.

[Arugula Latte]

9. "Also, Mrs. Wagner, you forgot to tell us what our homework is!"

[FSogol]

10. Aw, man, I hated that kid.

3. Mr. Frothy is his OWN problem - just by being himself.

[Ikonoklast]

4. We would have called Ricky "Swirly" Santorum.

He would have been the recepient of a swirly every time he pulled his moral superiority act on everyone else.

[Tippy]

8. Santorum is not very bright..

[Ganja Ninja]

11. If I had to guess what his problems stem from ...

I would say he was probably molested as a child. It seems the more he dwells on sexual matters the angrier he gets.

[BumRushDaShow]

12. "Sniveling" is the perfect description

[The Genealogist]

13. He's like the love child of an ayatollah and Nellie Olson

Its shameful when that kind of person is the best a supposedly major political party can come up with.
