Throughout the brutal, exasperating trials and tribulations of the Republican nominating fiasco, all of the candidates seemed bonded by one essential truth:
Another term in office for Barack Obama would mean the end of America as we know it and was to be avoided at all costs!
Indeed, it was expected that when a nominee was finally selected, the unsuccessful candidates would immediately shed ego and false pride in favor of doing what is best for America.
Namely, work to end the Marxist tyranny imposed by Obama and return our blessed homeland to what the founding fathers envisioned 235 years ago.
Unfortunately, that presumption of unity was shattered to tatters by Rick Santorum in a shocking act of treason in which the former Senator appeared to migrate over to the “Dark Side” by declaring that reelecting Obama would be preferable to electing Mitt Romney.
As reported at the reference:
“Presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Thursday said Republicans should give President Barack Obama another term if Santorum isn’t the GOP nominee and for a second day compared rival Mitt Romney to an Etch A Sketch toy.
Santorum reiterated an argument he has made before: The former Massachusetts governor is not conservative enough to offer voters a clear choice in the fall election and that only he can provide that contrast.
“You win by giving people a choice,” Santorum said during a campaign stop in Texas. “You win by giving people the opportunity to see a different vision for our country, not someone who’s just going to be a little different than the person in there.”
Santorum added: “If they’re going to be a little different, we might as well stay with what we have instead of taking a risk of what may be the Etch A Sketch candidate for the future.”
Clearly, the time has come to end the ridiculous spectacle know as the GOP primary process before further harm can be done to the party (and the nation) by malcontent Republicans whose shattered egos have caused them to see Darkness at the end of the tunnel, and have accepted the Darth Raider invitation to join the Dark Side.
May the force abandon you as you have abandoned America, Senator Santorum!
