GOP Establishment Will Not Allow Rick Santorum The Nomination

February 28, 2012

There is no way Rick Santorum can drive his theocratic message to the White House, and most Republicans know that.  I am also confident most Republicans would not want that to happen, even if it could.  The establisment will act if there is a threat Santorum could mess up the GOP plans to win against Preident Obama this fall.

They might have to start acting sooner rather than later.

Another pundit and political professional has offered insight on what might happen (and it could–though I am not predicting it) if Rick Santorum were to win the Michigan Primary.

“If Rick Santorum wins tonight it’s the equivalent of a 9.0 on a Richter scale. I mean it is going to shake Washington, it’s going to shake Republican establishment it’s just going to shake things to their very core,” Dowd told me. “And I think what you’re going to see are the conversations that have been going on behind quiet doors saying we need another candidate in this race.”

    Wow, so the GOP does not like Santorum or Romney. I can’t see them being happy with Gingrich or Paul either. So who are they going to find at this late date to be the presidential candidate?
