In case you are thinking of jumping onto the latest non-Romney train; here is a tweet about Santorum that may interest you.

Santorum not only filibustered the National Right to Work Act, he voted to retain the Davis-Bacon Act.

Regardless of who the nominee is, we all need to vote against Obama.

In another gaffe:

nationaljournal.com

In response to a voters’ question, Santorum on Monday was discussing the Medicaid program for the poor and disabled when he commented, “That’s what the bottom line is. So I don’t want to make black people’s lives better by giving them somebody else’s money. I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money and provide for themselves and their families.”

What he said would have been fine had he omitted the word "black"

Your vote doesn't count anyway. You live in the state that gave us Senator Al Franken. I live in the state that has given us 20 years of Senator Patty Murray. You're in the same boat as me. It could be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Barack Obama feasts on kittens and puppies once a week and our respective states would still go for Obama. That said, I'm voting for the Republican nominee, whomever that turns out to be.

I don't care. I'm done voting against people. That's it. I'm through with it. If Obama wins it's the fault of the republican elites who chose a poor candidate - again. Not mine. Put the blame where it belongs. That's the mark of maturity.

Big government is here to stay no matter what side you vote for. I'd prefer a USA that increases military spending to 10% of the GDP, gets out of the business of business and introduces a flat rate tax of 20% with no deductions for every corporation and individual. The system isn't too big to fail it is failing and what is happening right now is expensive life support for a patient with no prospect of recovery.
