Even if we lose in November (although I think Obama has this), I think we couldn't have asked for a better Republican nominee.

He's basically a Democrat with a business background. Not the worst choice out there, although he may drift to the right to satisfy the base after getting in office. In a lot of ways, he's probably more left wing than Obama.

As an opponent I am glad he has zero charisma

Santorum might be so far right he would not get independents, but he had a dangerous populism, and was much better than Mitt on the stump

that the GOP wields with impunity

The overly cerebral Dems, not so much

Given that Marshal Matthews created a song/video in 2004 for our side, I have a feeling he would approve.
