Santorum: ‎"If Cuba wants to open their door after the Castro's die....Mountain's of Aid"

"[The sanctions] should continue. They should continue until the Castros are dead and then we should make it very clear that if you want mountains of aid, if you want normal relationships, if you want to improve your economy, if you want to have the opportunity for freedom, that the United States stands ready now to embrace you now that you've gotten rid of these tyrants who have controlled you for these 50 plus years. That's why the sanctions have to stay in place because we need to have a very solid offer to come forward and help the Cuban people."

If RP starts out polling Rick by 7 pts between now and the primary, he will drop and endorse Romney so RP ends up last at third. That is right from Rick Perry and Huntsman playbook.

How are sanctions helping the Cuban people?
 
wait til you see the entire clip of his answer, he was grasping, fetching, struggling ...all while completely alienating the florida hispanics with his roundabout rambling nonsense.
a lot like that last line...:p
 
This was a calculation. His camp believes that Cuban-Americans in Florida would love their families back home to get huge amounts of free money. And if Cuba becomes rich enough at the American teat, these people may even choose to move back home.

Remember, many of these people left their homeland, not in search of a better land, but because they were running away from a dictator. If you take the dictator away and give the island lots of money, they'd love to go back.

At least, this is what Santorum is thinking.
 
Insight into Santorum's mind: "Cuba is one huge al-Qaeda training camp. Lets nuke them now! There is still time!" :D
 
I find it ironic how everyone but Paul was saying that everyone's going to be sailing over here when Castro dies. Lol, yeah they're gonna want to leave right when their dictator dies! But until then, it's all good staying!

Possibility. Money might be thrown at Santorum for the sole purpose of keeping him in to take up debate time. Also to give people the illusion that Paul doesn't have a chance because he'll continue to be the only candidate who hasn't won a state.

A person donated 500,000 for his superpac.

that same guy has already donated millions.

Santorum won't drop out after Florida, unless he finishes a distant 4th (which I don't see happening).

Santorum thinks everyone who disagrees with US culture is an islamic/mexican/socialist/Iranian/Hezbollah/Hamas-terrorist...
 
Santorum inspired:

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself, and we must reject those who spread fear." - B4L update of FDR
 
If we were to kill Hilary Clinton, China will shower us with mountains of aid!

See? I can say the same to them! (Course, I'm not actually calling for any assassinations.. Just pointing out how hypocritical that remark of Santorum was.)
