DDU_SUPER PAC - THE SANTORUM SWEEP

I had previously endorsed Santorum in an earlier blog, mostly because of his Tea Party credentials as a social conservative... Here is a short blog I wrote on Santorum during the Iowa Caucus that I'll publish now that he has risen back to serious contender:



"Good Morn, Eve, and Morrow to all fans of the sanctity of democracy.

I, founder of DDU, am in the heartland of America and am adhering to the will of the Word of God, and the Law of the Land. Writing from a sterile bed behind key and lock in Catawba County amidst the ecstasis of the Iowa caucus - The last I heard, the final votes from Aimes were racing across a darkened highway and have yet to confirm what most of America will assuredly wake up to find Wednesday morning to be a great victory for the underdog in the G.O.P. race, Mr. Rick Santorum.

Bachmann's framing of Santorum's potential win as a victory over the old bah humbug brandy swilling estabbyment G.O.P. and it's mechanisms of media do lend DDU a cracking endorsement -

"Slight air of Reagan's Ire"

To ole Ricky.

Or should I say, 'young' Ricky.

Anyhow, as much as I'd like to hop directly onto the Santorum pickup truck (otherwise known as a bandwagon) I do, in all honesty, get the sinking feeling of a pervasiveness of Anti Southern sentiment in the G.O.P. this year.

Our two Southern Candidates, Cain and Gingrich (both from Atlanta), have been systematically character assassinated.

Santorum, for whatever reason, seems to be able to rise above certain 'polemical' attacks on the basis of his Christian virtue.

Santorum, on Fox news, during the New Hampshire debates played the 'fascism' card on the POTUS - something unheard of and which is generally reserved for say the various rebellious teen or neo-marxist on a college campus.

Some facts on Santorum:

He's 'weak on earmarks'.

He's 'boring'.

and,

of course,


He's 'not Romney'.


If I had to venture one guess as to Santorum's upset win over every other 'Not-Romney' candidate in the field, it would be that he was so underestimated that he wasn't crippled sufficiently by his opponents.

-Everyone likes to look at politics as either evil, avante garde, or sporting - but I must say there is a tremendous possibility that in events such as the Iowa Caucus, we really do have a culmination of the dream of our Founding Fathers... in a salient nation defining course of History.

The fact that many tea parties were held in pizzeria's shows ample substantiation of the much espoused and sentimentalized 'Real America' the conservatives have consistently defined over the years."


I wrote that on the Iowa Caucus, and it still seems important today somehow.


Anyhow, just a quick update for the S.U.
