I don't know why the first thing I thought of was Beavis and Butthead when you talk about big foreheads, Romney and Santorum. But there it is.

Seriously, Romney is the only one of the 3 that has executive experience and probably capable of doing the job. Neither Santorum nor Paul did squat in Congress...all they have is their flawed ideology. They'd be total disasters from Day 1. Yet, here the Republican voter is, willing to destroy this country by putting Paul and Santorum into contention....these people cannot judge character and competency in their choices for the most important job in the world.
