Rick Santorum: 'I Wish I Made As Much Money As Mitt Romney'

RealClearPolitics :

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Rick Santorum isn't used to getting asked the first question of a presidential debate.
Throughout the campaign, he has always been one of the underdogs on stage, before and after his surprising Iowa victory, and the former Pennsylvania senator has often faded in the glow of other candidates.

Santorum could never sell his terrible plans for the country to any but a small minority, no matter how much money he had.

If you hadn't lost your seat you would have been well on your way like the rest of them! Just be particular about which corporations you sell your soul to!

I guess he better get back to work on "K" street and make it happen.

If he gets there in time he might be able to work on "H" street and move up!

Isn't his wish a twofer--envy and greed.

Doesn't he? with all the health care lobbying he does?

Money is not going to help you Rick. You should wish for a better personality and maybe you could have taken over this campaign with no money at all. But since you are a hateful, racial, and despicable human being insofar as your fellow citizens are concerned, you couldn't make it to first base if you had all the tea in China. Your personality is your claim to no fame Rick. Work on it, not your pockets.

Yeah, that sounds like the first thing a supposedly devout Christian would wish for.

If he can get in office and start a war he will be rich beyond his wildest dreams as he will be sure to have stock in defense industries.

Remember Rick, what Jesus said about the rich man and the camel........

I don't feel too bad for a guy that makes $1.3 million a year -(http://www.usatoday.com/USCP/PNI/NEWS/2012-01-08-BCUSSantorums-Wealth3rd-LdWritethru_ST_U.htm). Another sign that the GOP is out of touch with the real world and protect the 1%

With 8 mouths to feed and one of them(that we know of)being developmentally challenged he needs as much money as he can make with the rising cost of medical care and who knows how many of the other brood are intellectually challenged as Rick and Karen do not seem to be the brightest bulbs in the lamp.

I'd settle for the interest from Mitt's money.

[PublicCitizen21044]

I'd settle for him doing wealth building seminars and getting off of the POTUS wanna be track for he would finally be able to enrich peoples lives in a truly meaningful way,otherwise what do Americans need him for as he is a draft dodger and a deadbeat tax cheat/evader who is enriching foreign investment Banks/Houses.
