American People's Support for Santorum is Real.

The reaction by the media and the Washington establishment has been comical. They do not understand how Santorum is gaining or even surpassing Mitt Romney in the latest polls. They did not understand his winning in Missouri, Minnesota, nd Colorado. They are confused. The Republican establishment tried to make Monday a "Mitt " day by showcasing his visit to Arizona and reminding everyone that he won the CPAC poll and the Maine caucuses.  Fair enough. But the Michigan numbers deflate the story.  And as the press writes more about Santorum, the public gets the idea that this fellow could be the one who could beat Barak Obama. The latest polls throughout the country show Santorum beating Romney in Michigan and in Tennessee.  The National Review has written that Gingrich should step aside.

All this means is that Santorum will be put under the magnifying glass by everyone. But his handling of the talking heads this weekend produced no gaffes and some great one liners. He is comfortable being who he is. And he smiles. That is a good thing.

He should continue to take the high road in the primary process concentrating his verbal arsenal on the true target - Barak Obama. - and pointing out to the American people that we do not need a dictator in the White House. We need a leader who acknowledges the real liberties of the average American citizen, who wants to give everyone opportunities in their daily struggle and fundamentally respects their right to life.
