Rick Santorum
On the one hand, I don’t think Santorum is a great candidate. He’s not particularly charismatic, is prone to take extreme positions, and doesn’t have a chance in the general.
That said, it’s good to see a conservative who isn’t trying to be some sort of mainstream Ron Paul. Or maybe Ron Paul plus tough foreign policy. The Republican Party actually believes in stuff other than tax cuts. Santorum’s policy solutions aren’t much to write home about. But he’s at least willing to consider that maybe government has a purpose.
