13. Santorum, once he is *known* will be toast.
Wed Jan 4, 2012, 02:27 AM
Jan 2012

Having grown up in Pittsburgh, the name Santorum is not foreign to me, as it is to most of the United States.

He has been corrupt for a long long long time. He is sex-obsessed, self-righteous to the core, anti women, anti gay and more than a little creepy. Google Penn Hills and Santorum. Google Santorum and Corrupt 2006. The list goes on. And soon, with the way this media hounds out every single breath these people make, they will be on these things. They've basically ignored him while everyone else has been flavor of the month. And the Republican poobahs that be know damn well Santorum will be a flunkee against Obama. They will do their own hatchet job on Santorum.

And Mitt? BLOWHARDDDDD. He essentially got less votes than he did four years ago didn't he? Wasn't it a bit over 30,000?
The only winner in Iowa was our President.
