Santorum Heckled In Nashville

Rick Santorum did not exactly get the warmest welcome in Nashville last night. Santorum was 45 minutes late to the mostly empty stadium at Belmont University. But several hundred students stuck around for the show anyway. Probably because profs were giving them extra credit for attendance (that's the only way some of these yahoos can get an audience).

The candidate doesn't have the money or the infrastructure to win in the General. And he's not going to get the money because everyone except his bat-sh*t crazy base knows he's too crazy to win the General. That said, polls show Santorum leading in Tennessee. But that's a good thing because the longer this clown show goes on, the weaker Romney gets.

Rick Santorum Gets Booed on Nashville College Campus:


NASHVILLE – Rick Santorum faced a mixed crowd Wednesday evening as many of his go-to talking points, which typically garner applause and cheers, were met with resistance on the campus of Belmont University...

When Santorum began to talk about the implementation of the healthcare plan in 2014, a point in his stump speech which normally receives boos, Santorum was met with resounding cheers from a portion of the crowd who support Obama’s plan. The other half of the crowd tried to quell the applause with loud boos of their own.

When Santorum explained the reasons the Constitution was drafted, a member of the crowd shouted “To protect us from you!” to some laughter from the crowd. Santorum ignored the heckler and said the Constitution was intended to protect Americans’ inalienable rights.
