Santorum's resurgence is a good thing. He once claimed he found WMD in Iraq

Rick Santorum is about to gain momentum when he wins MO and MN. This is a good thing IMO. If he opposes Obama, the Democratic Party can mock his idiotic claim that WMD were found in Iraq. He can be targeted as a crazy wingnut who would say anything in order to justify an expensive war.

See 2006 news: "Defense Department Disavows Santorum’s WMD Claims" http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2006/06/21/5920/dod-disavows-santorum/?mobile=nc

Santorum and another republican representative said, "we have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq."

the longer the GOP race goes on and the further right Mittens has to move.

Keep snapping at his heels and send him skittering even further to the rabid right.

Even the greatest "Flipper" of all time won't be able to tack back to the center in time for November.
