Does this mean that 2016 will be Santorum's "turn" for the nomination?

If so, we may keep the White House longer than even I expected.

1. Imagine him up on the state debating Hillary in 2016

They could rehash her It Takes a Village book.

3. Or Sen. Elizabeth Warren

which is more likely


I think Sec. Clinton is going to semi-retire and help with her husband's foundation.

2. I always figured he was running to be next in line

it isn't like it could be Newt

4. No he's just the lucky duck the floundering beast happened to fall on this week.

They know there's no chance of winning this year.

2016 they will bring out Christie and Rubio and maybe Jeb. We have to think ahead to whom we are running. Obviously not Biden.

[Firebrand Gary]

5. Highly unlikely.

Santorum has serious baggage. I'd be very surprised if the establishment did come down on him by tomorrow, he has a long history of wild statements that are going to make many people feel VERY uncomfortable.

6. He's the candidate that may finally make the republicans realize they Stepped in IT.

And chew off their foot to free themselves from the snare-trap of the Religiofreakos.

[Kennah]

7. Your post confuses me

Without the Religiofreakos, what is left of the GOP?

[Warren DeMontague]

8. The 20 or so billionaires who really run the show.

If they lose the religiofreakos, they'll have to invent some cyborg values voters or some shit.

9. LOL

[JSnuffy]

10. 2016 is for Christie...

IMO...

[11 Bravo]

11. Oh, Lord, I hope so! That would guarantee another 8 years of Democratic Presidencies, and ...

that should enable us to shape a reasonably sane SCOTUS for generations to come.
