Scorched Earth: Santorum Says GOP Floor Fight At Convention Would 'Energize Party'

More proof, if any more were needed, that Rick Santorum is unfit to be president:

Rick Santorum says a fight at the GOP convention over the party's presidential nominee would be "energizing" for the party.

Campaigning in Wisconsin Monday, Santorum pressed his argument that front-runner Mitt Romney isn't the strongest Republican to go up against President Barack Obama in the fall.

The former Pennsylvania senator says a convention floor fight over which candidate should be Obama's general election opponent would be a "fascinating display of open democracy" and would encourage more Republican voters to participate.

This is likely a response to polls showing him losing tomorrow in the Wisconsin winner-take-all primary tomorrow..not to mention the primaries in Maryland and DC.

The idea that some disgruntled failed candidate would try to set off a bomb at the GOP convention just to massage his own ego and try rationalize the damage that would do to himself by saying it would be 'energizing' is simply disgraceful.As I've noted before on other occasions, he doesn't deal with pressure well. President Obama would destroy him in the general election.

Did Senator Santorum forget the main exercise, ridding the country of President Barack Obama? Is he so wrapped up in his own feelings that he thinks a prolonged floor fight televised nationally is going to contribute to that effort?

It's interesting to note that in 2008, Mitt Romney withdrew from the race when he was doing far better than Rick Santorum ( a decision CPAC mourned) and urged people to strive for party unity to defeat Obama and get behind John McCain, the presumptive nominee at that time.

Governor Romney, say whatever else you want about him, is a man who thinks big, beyond himself. Senator Santorum is a much smaller man.He needs to do some real soul searching at this point.
