Santorum Implicitly Concedes Need For Obamacare: Says His Special Needs Child Took Up Much Of His Income


BUT if you remember a little while back Santorum said "Obamacare" would kill his daughter. I do apologize I cannot find the article but I do remember reading it (if anyone knows of the article can you send me the link or post it.)

1. yeah, no. He *should flip flop* on this issue, but he did not in fact do so.

[Justice wanted]

3. He basically admitted that the Health Care insurance he has right now doesn't cover ALL his child's

24 hour care and HE himself is struggling to pay it.

[Schema Thing]

4. right. IOW, he did not "flip flop" on this issue. He merely let us in on his reality.

It's a great argument for Obamacare, but Santorum is not making that argument. YOU (and I and any sane observer) are making that argument.


Hopefully he will now have to face this line of questioning directly. It will be interesting.

5. Then he has no business running for president.

I took a lot of heat in 2008 when I questioned Sarah Palin's judgement in running for veep while caring for a newborn child with Down's Syndrome. I got tagged as "sexist" although I made it perfectly clear that I apply that standard to fathers as well. Maybe I am old fashioned, but my priority would be my family's care, not running around the country.

6. actually his problem isn't time, it's money and his run for

President will likely help that in all fairness.
