Richard Viguerie Touts Santorum as Trump VP Image: Richard Viguerie Touts Santorum as Trump VP Rick Santorum and Donald Trump (AP) By Todd Beamon | Friday, 10 Jun 2016 08:31 PM Donald Trump should pick Rick Santorum as his Republican vice presidential running mate because the former Pennsylvania senator "would unite the establishment wing of the GOP with the conservative movement," conservative activist Richard Viguerie said Friday. "Neither of these two major wings of the party could claim that Santorum as the VP pick would be a disaster," Viguerie said in a blog on his Conservative HQ website. "With all his qualities, he bridges the often-wide gap between the leaders of the GOP establishment and the conservative movement. "For Trump, who has given both the conservative movement and the GOP establishment cause for concern, Rick Santorum is almost uniquely suited to help soothe both factions in ways that would help defeat Hillary [Clinton]." Santorum, 58, dropped out of the 2016 race in February. He ran in the 2012 primary, finishing second in delegates after eventual nominee Mitt Romney. He ran on a conservative pro-life platform that appealed to evangelical voters. He served in Pennsylvania Senate from 1995 to 2007 and had served as chairman of the Senate Republican Conference. Santorum endorsed Trump's candidacy last month, citing the presumed nominee's list of possible Supreme Court candidates. Santorum had supported Florida Senator Marco Rubio after he quit the race. According to Viguerie, Santorum would "as no other candidate except Ted Cruz, help Trump complete the circle necessary to build a winning populist- conservative coalition by bringing culturally conservative pro-lifers into the fold. "He knows Washington and Capitol Hill and certainly after his strong run in 2012 and his leadership in the Senate 'could be viewed as somebody who could be president,'" the columnist said. Viguerie called the senator "my conservative dark horse" — adding that "putting a candidate on the ticket so clearly identified with the pro-life cultural conservative agenda would do more than merely placate conservatives as the old rules of vice presidential selection would dictate. "Rick Santorum is clearly 'one of us' — a long-time movement conservative — and it is hard to imagine pro-life cultural conservatives not backing a Trump-Santorum ticket."

Viguerie's still kicking around -- and pushing kosherized neocons for Christian Amurrica? www.youtube.com/watch? v=SKxCDqz86uA www.youtube.com/watch? v=ZujnzuPIEPM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I love humanity -- it's the people I can't stand.
I never thought of it that way. But, I suppose you are right, Santorum is a Christian-Zionist. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
I think he should choose Justin Beiber for his running mate so he can sew up the teen and homosexual vote. Although I wouldn't be surprised if he chose his daughter. The Clintons plan to pay Trump to run as a Republican so Bubbette! would end up facing a candidate even stupider and more hated then she is.
Aaaah, you knew he was a neo as soon as he showed up in a (drum roll, please) Presidential Debate e.g. spitting cuck hatred at Ron Paul with the worst of 'em :-6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I love humanity -- it's the people I can't stand.
Trump will choose NONE of the low-energy losers from the primaries. Take that to the bank. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken

You're ridiculous - and when Turtle tells someone they're ridiculous, they are truly ridiculous. Keep on drinking that Trump bathwater and telling us all how "fabulous" it is. Enjoy the delusion while you can because it won't last long. And nothing is more ridiculous than someone declaring a life-long denizen of NYC and friend of every mayor they have ever had is a conservative.
