A woman was on the tube talking about why she voted for Santorum
It was not because she wanted to build from the bottom up
It was because he would take care of "us"
Take care means vindicate
In a more sinister vein it means that in the rubble Santorum and his remnant will somehow remain vindicated
It is Obama who is the actual responsibility candidate
He is not out to take care of anyone
Merely to see that as things are distributed that distribution is fair
Isn't it strange
Santorum is not about rebuilding
He is about vindication
Romney is not about vindication
But he does not have any sense of real fairness
Obama wins our votes
Because finally there is no authentic conservatism on the other side
