Watch this video from tonight’s GOP debate and answer me these questions. Why the hell is Santorum not leading the polls and what the hell is wrong with Mitt Romney. Obamacare is not worth getting angry about? Unreal. Please someone spare us from this fate.
Santorum absolutely dismantles Romney on the mandate issue and Romney is absolutely clueless, CLUELESS, about the principles involved.

@Paul Zummo:
Good presidents are leaders, unafraid to take the necessary steps/actions despite their unpopularity. Consider Lincoln, Washington, and Jefferson. You wouldn't really consider them overly charismatic (they were no Theodore Roosevelt or Barack Obama), but they were marked leaders, trusted and revered for their leadership.
Charisma may be one way of securing voters or at the least garnering voters' attention…it is not essential to presidency.
