Election 2012 Santorum Says Romney Is "a Paler Shade of What We Have"
Posted by Paul Constant on Fri, Jan 13, 2012 at 9:44 AM
It gets worse the more you think about it:
[Santorum] said the party can win back the White House only by offering a “clear contrast” with President Obama. “We need contrasts,” Mr. Santorum said, “not just a paler shade of what we have.”
Wonkette has the rest, along with a warning that evangelical leaders are meeting this weekend in Texas to figure out if they want to make a last-ditch effort to unite behind Santorum. We secular wiccan atheist dung-worshippers (and liberal Christians) should all join our hands in prayer that they do; the longer this race goes on, the more dumb things the candidates are likely to say, and the better it is for Democrats.
