Wow! I'm more shocked about the comments from the crowd than the politicians. Is this MY country, MY fellow citizen saying that? Sadly, yes.
I don't do well with dumb people. And, I can't imagine being a politician. I have to admit – as a politician, I just can't imagine the amount of hate rhetoric and 100% untruths they must here all the time. AND, they have to appeal to these folks to vote for them! I don't think Santorum was comfortable with the question and it sounds like he held back in his response to refute what she was saying. He clearly wanted to rally a crowd and not start a debate. John McCain – well, I love that guy and that would have been my approach. But, hey, that doesn't really rally a crowd, though, when you tell them they're just flat out wrong.
