Meghan McCain: Rick Santorum Would Face 'Bloodbath' Against Obama

Meghan McCain ripped into Rick Santorum Wednesday on MSNBC, warning that he would stand no chance against President Obama.

"Santorum is on every level an unelectable candidate," she said. "I think for anyone the end goal should be beating President Obama. And if you want to put Santorum up against President Obama, I always say it's going to be an absolute bloodbath during the election cycle."

When asked whether Wednesday night's CNN debate would be Santorum's to lose, McCain said no on the basis that Romney is the frontrunner -- an assertion that looks less than solid in recent polls.

"No, it's Romney's to lose tonight," she said. "Romney's still the frontrunner. But I think this is going to be an ugly debate tonight. Santorum knows this is pretty much his last time to get national attention from everyone and he's probably going to act like a big child."
