Beware of the Zombies....they're alive and well on here...
2 years ( that's 730 days) with total control of the executive and legislative branches, Republicans couldn't stop a thing...and your guys failed, and failed miserably...... so much so the electorate tossed them out on their asses....They failed, and so did your post.

If you mean meaningful health care is now available to more Americans than ever before, then Obama is to blame.

I can make a case for anything.....
the question is can you open your mind even a sliver to understand ( not agree) it?
I'm not of Santorum's ilk, but I understand his position on abortion. He believes that every life is sacred, as do many....if not a majority of Americans. Even a life conceived in rape. He follows his Catholicism teachings literally, as opposed to say Catholics like Mario Como and John Kerry who professed and practiced thier Catholic faith, but carefully mitigated it by saying they wouldn't let thier religious beliefs interfere with political beliefs. Some wonder how that could be. You either believe life is sacred, or you don't....where's the gray area in that? Either you have a set of deep beliefs or you don't. Liberal Christians like Cuomo always told us "I believe there are too many abortions" but did nothing politically to bolster that point of view. It was a throw away line. In fact they did the opposite. Let's say there was 500,000 abortions in the US last year. Santorum might offer this....at some point in time, one has to start asking what does that say about us as a nation whose founders forged the country on a belief in god.
Why don't you listen to Santorum in his own words explain the realities of what you refer to as a "modern" world.

As far as the rest of his social conservatism....I'm not one, so I can't speak to it.

Basing law on what is Sacred breeches the separation of religion and state. That life is Sacred cannot be cited as a justification for any law.

Re: Mitt Romney -- whaddaya think???
Coming on 3 years this president can't bother himself to produce a budget for the country. Have we really reached the point where the president just sheepishly asks for "another $1.2 trillion", after adding more than $5 trillion to our countries debt in 3 years. How about getting off your ass and putting together a budget that will provide a guideline for spending over the next year Potus?

Newt correctly defines Mitt as a moderate.
Newt Gingrich blasts Romney with personal attacks - YouTube
As Newt's ad clearly states: private equity leaders gettin' rich at the expense of American workers. Why is Newt Gingrich waging class warfare? I don't understand.
Gingrich "King of Bain" ad 2012 - YouTube
Again, is Newt merely envious of Mitt's ultra richness? I don't understand why Newt is wickedly waging this class warfare. What's Newt's problem?
