What vision. Another dumb repo worried about running for office while the American publi waits for some one to help with medical reform and getting people back to work. And education. I guess the president is all on his own while these clowns jocky for political office.

Rick Santorum

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

You have got to be kidding!!!!

Say no to him!

He is bad news!

Obama 2012!!

Bring it on, lil Ricky whacko! We'd love to knock you off your high horse again.

Yet another Republican moron. I actually think this guy is too conservative for the GOP to actually consider. They should look at Mitch Daniels.

But I will be for Obama/Biden 2012

Rick who?? Oh, the GOP flavor of the week? that Rick? Ok, I gotcha.

WHO??? Where in the heck did he come from??? How come every lilving soul on the RIGHT SIDE (but wrong side) thinks they can just step up and BEAT a president that over 62 million people elected into office??? Especially people you never heard of!!!!

GET REAL!!!

Another Republican nut case!

if rick santorumis elected president, I will retire in another country

Oh puh-leeze, Rick. Tell the nice people in the rest of the country how poorly your served Pennsylvania, lived in another state and kept a vacant home in PA as your primary residence??!! Also, you were voted out of office by the good and smart people of Pennsylvania, so what makes you think you would be welcome in Washington??. Sombody is feeding you a bunch of malarky if you think you have a chance. Just do us a favor and stay home (wherever that is), please!

Gosh, another pathetic person who used his family as political props...(his wife delivered a baby knowing that it wouldn't survive) and yes, their faces were all over the news telling their story. If someone does good, I believe the Bible says something about not letting one hand see what the other does....I don't think that Christ meant for Christians to go around saying "Hey, look at me....I'm a really good Christian...." It's time they start living it and stop talking it.

Good luck Rick, you were ousted in PA....you know the state that has more right-wing hate groups than any other.

Another loser ad moron. Who helped Bush destroy this nation..

LOL everyone should google the word santorum, it is VERY educational!!

ANd really? you think if he runs every child in america won't learn about the other meaning of santorum?

This ignorant, bigotted homophobe should just go hide.

I think it would make for an interesting primary.
He's pretty conservative, but a very good speaker.
I used to enjoy watching him give speeches in the Senate.
Lot of hate filled comments in here like usual, lol.

This CLOWN ,couldnt be President of 7 ELEVEN, he is a JOKE, and a CANCER to America, a FOOLISH FOOL>

Oh, please run Rick. Best way for Obama to get a second term. Santorum is santorum.

Wait, NOW is the time for the GOP to start promoting solutions and policies? NOW? So they are going to admit that they've done no work until NOW? Nice.

I have to agree with him. But it is not just republicans who need to strt to work on solutions. It needs to be both sides of the aisle. there are just as many radical democrats as republicans. just remember there were democrats who voted with the republicans to go to war.

At this point, anybody but Obama sounds great to me.

Let's see, 8 months into President Obama's term and over a year since our economy went into a deep spiral and this guy says it's NOW time for the Republicans to start coming up with solutions! That pretty much acknowlodges that the GOP has done nothing up to this point. At least someone in the GOP is finally telling the truth.

These fool GOPs are fallling all over themselves convinced that by 2012 the public not only will have forgiven, but maybe even forgotten what a mess we had under the GOPs, including Santorum and President Bush. Charlie Crist, all of a sudden maybe not on a direct path to the Senate, continues to huff and puff about Obama losing in '12. Trent Franks, Joe Wilson, Michelle Bachmann, Michael Steele, etc. can't seem to keep their mouths shut even when they hurt their own cause...because the rabid base just cheers them on and on, and they imagine that the noisy 20% of the far right somehow speaks for the rest of us...just pathetic, really.

Don't know the guy but all I can say is "BRING IT!!!!!" The Repubs still don't have any answers.

Forget it.

Forget it Rick. We know your history.

And just what are his credentials? That he's another self-righteous Republican hack willing to say and do anything to get elected, all the while claiming that he's "christian" and therefore morally superior to everyone else (and the only holder of "family values")?

Been there, done that – and every single one of those evangelical doofuses is a hypocrit!

The word "solution" is easy to say but explaining what "that" might be coming from a Republican still remains nothing but a "word".

Santorum couldn't get re-elected in his own state, where he was considered invincible, but he's going to win national office?

Yeah, right!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go critic! and divide the republican party even more! I just want to see the party of wing nuts only!

All those that says they will not vote for the Democrats or President obama in 2012 isnt this whats its all about anyway thats exactly what the republicans want you to do say that you wont vote for the Democrats in 2012 as far as im concern i just want a good bill that will work.

Probably an anti-Obama campaign will work better than the anti-Bush campaign Obama ran. The difference will be the Republicans will have something to follow it up with instead of a free for all spending spree courtesy of working Americans everywhere when they win.

And WHO is he ???

this guy is a political loser of epic proportions!

we do not need another politician who spews hate and lies under the guise of "I'm just a family man with higher morals and family values than you'll ever have!"

full of clueless REthugs... this guys are shame to out country... GOP will not win next election

i voted for our president in 2008 and i will certainly vote for him in 2012. these idiots are foolish even thinking they are smarter than obama. if they were not so evil it would be funny. the nasty party of NO does not have a candidate that could even come close to our president in knowledge and strength needed to run this country.
president obama stills has the majority with him and we shall stand up for him in 2012.

Oh PLEASE run!!!!! Obama will win by a landslide!

Bring him on. Another holier that thou Republican who fully supported Bush's war. This guy represents everything we rejected the last few elections. The party of the past.

9 month critique. That even sounds foolish to discuss. What qualifies him to critique Obama?? I thought Republicans only valued executive experience -somethings Slick-Rick doesn't have. Where did he graduate in his class? Suma or Magna? He's not qualified!!! He has no real international experience!!

Okay, sure... He is popular with the nutjobs of the far right... just as Palin and Bachmann are...

But he will NEVER be president. The right wing base cannot get anyone elected by itself, and that is all he will ever have.

LOL... Palin, Pawlenty and Santorum, the three stooges yes indeed !

He's considering a presidential bid? Seriously? President of what???
Mr. "Man-on-Dog" wouldn't even be elected president of the ASPCA!

Blah Blah Blah, This Ripugnants are destroying the Country why don't they just go away.

REALLY?
ohpleaseohpleaseohplease!

Republicain No Longer, CaRTER HAD THE 50 hOSTAGES. that was not keeping us safe that is whyy he lost the election you may want to go back and check history

Add ANOTHER "former" someone to the list of Republican candidates. Good, the longer the list of "formers" there are competing against President Obama the better I feel about 2012.

Obama Biden 2012

GOP, you got nothing......You're groping in the dark.......You might as well bring back Hong Kong Sue......

Can someone tell me since everyone sez Obama is so good at multi-tasking why hasn't he been able to do anything? the signing of papers you dont read like the stimulas dont count bu t if he gets the Olymoics that will be the first thing hes done and it wont be much to do because of him

Thank you Mr Santorum. We need as many conservatives as we can get to overcome the misguided socialist agenda of the democrats. 2010 and 2012 cannot come fast enough. This country is in big trouble NOW.

are there any smart repugnant reptiles, I guess not, that's why they are called repugnant reptiles.........enough of the gop garbage......send them all to the dump

This guy is the biggest joke since french bread.

I hope it's a joke because I don't want to explain to my then-3 year-old in 2012 why daddy's laughing whenever he hears the word "Santorum". Dan Savage will increase in popularity, so a Rick Santorum run wouldn't be all bad.

Presidential bid? You must be joking. Santorum's fundamentalism is exactly what's wrong with my former GOP these days.

While purporting so-called "limited government" nonsense, the social conservatives hypocritically inject their governing into the very private lives of citizens, where government has no business.

Oh, dear Lord, please let him get the nomination. I can't think of a simpler way for Obama to get a second term!

Relish this article the six Santorum fans in the world. This is the last time you'll hear his name.

Santorum?

BWAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!

I hope they loose again.

These Republicans keep talking about how they "plan" to propose their own solutions, but in the end they don't have ANY new ideas. They just repackage the same failed policies that led us into this mess!

I Voted for Obama and the Democratic Party in 2008

IF THERE IS NO PUBLIC OPTION.

I WILL NOT VOTE for Obama and the Democratic Party in 2012 – PERIOD.

I am a Pennsylvania...................we loathe this snake Santorum. Take your pick – The Shivo case where he really did not care about this woman as he is a warmonger or the fact he lied about living in Penn Hills Pennsylvania.

Santorum is a liar and fraud. Santorum YOU Lie!!!!!

Santorum = Bush. No thank you, Rick, but thanks for the offer.

Just what the country needs, yet another hypocritical, self-righteous candidate from the party of the Stone Age.

Typical Republican strategy. Gain by putting somethign or someone down and not by adding anything of worth to the debate or the American people. Unfortunately it usually works. Americans sure are sapps

Everyone and their dog seems to be running for president. Ambition and self-aggrandizement above all else. The GOP pretenders will make for interesting political theater in the primary but what record will they be running on? Will it be.... "We opposed Obama's support for the having the Olympics in the United States (Chicago) in 2016"??? "We opposed Obama on stopping torture"??? "We opposed Obama's rescue of the economy after Bush sent us into a near-depression"???

Hahaha – Rick Santorum? The corrupt freak? Well, I guess anyone's considered a good candidate what with the bar set so low with Bush and then lowered even further – as in, on the ground – with Sarah Palin.

Meanwhile, let's all cut the cr*p and say YES to the public option!

Don't forget to mention that 3000 people haven't died in a terrorist attack since he's been in office. The only time that happened was under a Republican.

For the safety of my fellow americans, I won't place them in harms way again, I will never vote for another Republican. I still feel guilty for voting for Bush his first term. If we had elected Jimmy Carter to come back, we would have all been safe. Jimmy Carter after all, kept us safe on our homeland his ENTIRE time in office, not just some of it. He sucked besides that, just not as bad as Bush sucked.
