Rick Stantorum Wants To Be Pastor Of America.


Rick Santorum on Sunday took on separation of church and state.

"I don't believe in an America where the separation of church and state are absolute," he told 'This Week' host George Stephanopoulos. "The idea that the church can have no influence or no involvement in the operation of the state is absolutely antithetical to the objectives and vision of our country...to say that people of faith have no role in the public square? You bet that makes me want to throw up."

The GOP candidate was responding to comments he made last October. He had said that he "almost threw up" after reading JFK's 1960 speech in which he declared his commitment to the separation of church and state.

Newt Gingrich Can't Even Defend His Home State From Romney

Only a month ago, Newt Gingrich was atop the Republican presidential race. Now he is in a fight for a win even in his home state of Georgia as his campaign stakes its future on the Super Tuesday primaries.

Two polls out of three in recent days show Gingrich running a close race in the state with either Mitt Romney or Rick Santorum, who is making inroads with the large number of evangelical Republicans in Georgia. But he will take hope that one of those polls gave him a healthy lead of 13 percentage points over Santorum and 19 over Romney

A loss in Georgia, the biggest of the 10 states holding contests on Super Tuesday on March 6, would deal a severe blow to any chance Gingrich has of winning the Republican nomination.

Romney Wife Says It Time She Put On The Pants.


Mitt Romney's inability to interact with humans has gotten so bad that even his wife is now joking about it.

"Maybe I should just do all the talking and let him just stand here and watch me," she told a crowd on Saturday. "I've also decided: No more debates. If we're going to do another debate, he's going to sit in the audience and watch me. And that'll be it."

Her comments came at a campaign stop in Troy, Michigan. The Michigan primary will be a key crossroads for Romney, who is in danger of losing his frontrunner status after several recent national polls show him trailing Rick Santorum.

Republican Keep Pushing Race As A Issue.


We've seen a lot of weird ads this season, but nothing quite like this. Mark Oxner, a Republican congressional candidate from Florida, released a 39-second spot this week depicting the Obama administration as a slave ship.

The video features several men and woman on a boat--"The U.S.S. Obamaship"--discussing how "this ship" has given them various benefits, such as a bank bailout and "free health care for life."

The video also includes shots of children rowing the boat while a man holding a whip watches closely.
"Let's not enslave our children with debt," Oxner says, as the boat heads towards the edge of waterfall. "It's time to turn this ship around."

Oxner said in a statement that this is the first of multiple ads he will be releasing as he vies for Florida's 27th District.
