Yes, I get it that all the other family members are up on stage with him wearing their bella badges. But that does not take the place of spending valuable time with her. <br /><br />I hope Mitt wins PA by more that 17.3 points. I home he creams him so Santroum gets the hint that it was not God calling him to the presidency, but it was his own ego.<br /><br />EllieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3571954475140446599.post-55508907153809502452012-04-10T09:21:26.489-04:002012-04-10T09:21:26.489-04:00Noelle, so true.

You have now exceeded Newt when it comes to narcissism, ego, and putting your career above your family.<br /><br />I have a friend who had a baby with Trisomy 18. She died at about 1 month old. I would be willing to bet that her parents would not give up any time spent with her to pursue a hopeless cause.<br /><br />Santorum will not win the nomination, however it is possible that the ongoing bitter primary battle can cost the GOP sufficient support that we can be subjected to 4 more years of an incompetent president known as Obama.<br /><br />I am very turned off that Santorum is willing to lose the White House in 2012 to give himself a chance at 2016. Maybe he thinks it's good for him, but I know it is very bad for our country.<br /><br />Again, I did not think it was possible for me to like Newt more than Rick, but here I am.

But ...Theoretically, Rick can run again in 8 years. But in the meantime, he's going to need a major personality / character make-over, and I don't think he can do it.<br /><br />Another thing I would like to say is that Rick has a daughter who needs him home right now. I feel so strongly about this. I gave Sarah Palin a bad time because I felt her decision to run for VP was detrimental to her special needs child. Bella Santorum needs Rick's full attention even more! She may not be here long. He should be spending every single minute with her. I suspect he will regret it, if he doesn't. He has no business running for president right now.<br /><br />-MarthaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
