Hey, Rick Santorum, you just won the Louisiana primary, now what are you going to do?

More of the same. Talk about Mitt Romney, give him lots of free press, and then cuss out a NY Times Reporter.


“If you haven’t cursed out a New York Times reporter during the course of a campaign, you’re not really a real Republican, is the way I look at it,” Santorum told Fox News.

On CNN his spox with the funny hair tried to convince John King that Santorum is "an Italian guy from a steel town who knows how to finish a fight."

Sounds like the Santos are sending up a test balloon to see if the tough guy thing works against clean cut Romney. Speaking of which, what was Santorum talking about when he called BS? Romney. What else? It's all he ever talks about.

In fact, let's look at everything Santorum talked about today.

He paid a little visit to the Supreme Court where the constitutionality of Obamacare was discussed (if you are a Republican, that is what you think they are talking about anyway).  Let's all take a moment to recall that the former Senator from Pennsylvania has absolutely no influence over the SCOTUS whatsoever (and he's not even on the DC ballot. But I do sincerely hope that he got to go to his home in the DC suburbs, see his little daughter, and sleep in his own bed for a night. Because it really sounds like he needs a good night's sleep.)

While standing on those hallowed grounds, just a few feet away from his former Hill offices, he said,

Mitt Romney should be in Washington, D.C. while the Supreme Court hears a challenge to the national health care law, Rick Santorum said Monday.
"Mitt Romney's 3,000 miles away. He should be here. He doesn't want to talk about the issue because he can't on substance disagree with the policies of this administration."

He also responded to suggestions from the Romney camp that his little outburst to the NY Times proves he's unsuited to be president.
"After I won Louisiana by 23 points? I understand the game but this is, you talk about desperate and pathetic, Mitt Romney can't run on his record."

I'd like to argue that it isn't his temper and language that makes him unsuitable. It is his inability to actually discuss a subject that isn't Mitt Romney. 

So where was Mitt Romney?
In California, talking about health care and the Constitution.
"What's happening today in Washington is an attack on free enterprise, an attack on economic freedom unlike anything we have ever seen before," Romney told an audience at NuVasive, a medical device company that designs artificial spine replacements.
He did not directly discuss the Supreme Court docket, but there was a big sign over his head that said "Repeal and Replace Obamacare."
"I just don't think the president and his people understand that as they burden enterprise with taxation and with regulation, they hurt all of us," Romney said. He also discussed innovation and jobs creation.
