Nicholas Hahn claims that being a good executive won Romney the Catholic vote. Mr. Hahn also says Santorum caught "Potomac fever," whatever that is. Well, Mr. Hahn, if being a Catholic means loving good executives, they must be mightily displeased with the ecclesiastical politicians calling themselves bishops. The bishops put their weight behind Obamacare only to have the Contraceptive Mandate shoved down their throats. If Santorum has Potomac fever, what disease do the other presidential candidates have? After all, if wanting public office is wrong, then Mitt the Shit and Newt Gingerich have the same defect. Estase has already given up on 2012. He voted for Santorum, and the rest of the Illinois GOP chose someone who forced Catholic hospitals to hand out Plan B. Mitt then lied about it, claiming that this provision of Romneycare was voluntary when it wasn't. Like Lisa Graas, I see absolutely no difference between Obama and Romney when it comes to freedom for the Catholic Church, and if the Catholic vote went with Romney, that shows how stupid Catholics are. Petasus tip to Kresta in the Morning.
My thought is that if the water is too poisoned between Romney and Santorum for the latter to be his VP, Romney might gain some creditablity as a pro-lifer (where he has none now) by making Michele Bachmann his VP. I might actually give a damn about whether or not Romney wins in that case.
Update: Justice Stephen Bryer sees nothing wrong with the government forcing people to buy burial insurance. The 1930s threw most of the freedom to make contracts out the window--vide Wickard v. Filburn, the Social Security Act. The 30s also were the decade that killed Common Law, and replaced it with an infinitely flexible constitution.
