Former Senator Rick Santorum bests President Obama in a head to head match up, according to the latest Rasmussen survey. This should help him in the electability department.
The Rasmussen Reports Daily Presidential Tracking Poll for one day only — Feb. 5. — marks the first time Santorum has held a lead over Obama in potential matchups.
It’s a small lead for Santorum — 1 percentage point, giving him a 45-44 percent edge over Obama.
“This is the first time Santorum has ever led the president in any poll,” the Rasmussen poll said. “Several other GOP challengers have led the president a single time in the polls, including Rick Perry, Herman Cain, and Newt Gingrich. Each man briefly held the lead while they were surging in the polls, only to fall quickly. It remains to be seen what will happen to Santorum’s support.” (Read More)
Imagine how well Santorum would poll if the media paid as much attention to him as they do to Romney and Gingrich.

Rick speaks with confidence and authority. Mitt stands there like a duck in a shooting gallery. Obama’s people will make a fool of Mitt worse than that idiot McCain. (I wish the North Vietnamese had kept his ass.)
I’ve read a Santorum description as being a priest if not a Senator. I can go along with humane treatment of the poor; the actual poor, not the giveme-giveme free cheese people.
Please, God anybody other than Obama and Mitt!

Now Romney turns his money on Santorum. Romney is intending to buy the R nomination, no two ways about it. We learned from the Newt situation that if Santorum does not have the money to run ads against the flak, it will be tough. If Romney didn’t have the money to intimidate his rivals, he wouldn’t be in the running. His record on carbon emissions and healthcare is definitely not R material.
