Rupert Murdoch on a possible Santorum win in Michigan: game over
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum has received a nudge of social media support from News Corp. Chairman Rupert Murdoch. In a tweet this afternoon Murdoch echoed growing sentiments that Santorum has the chance to deal a fatal blow to rival Mitt Romney if polls keep their course and the former Pennsylvania senator wins in the state where Romney grew up and his father was governor. The Australia-born business also commended Santorum for his outspoken stance on “values:”

Mediaite notes that Murdoch previously tweeted a positive sentiment for Santorum in January, writing “Can’t resist this tweet, but all Iowans think about Rick Santorum. Only candidate with genuine big vision for country.”
In RealClearPolitics average polling from 2/11-2/19, Santorum leads Romney in Michigan by 5 points before the state’s February 28 primary.

Great in the sense of success and not his character.

People similar to Murdoch made America Great, unlike Obama who is dragging it down.
Around 50% of Americans no longer pay any Federal Income Tax.
Isn’t that insane?

Posted on February 21, 2012 at 3:18pmI disagree with his assessment….I believe MI is the other way around. I think the press has decided to make the primary election over one that’s (1) state more than once. Remember South Carolina?? Needless to say, Santorum has more to lose with a loss in MI than Romney does [imo].
If we are basing somebody’s home state as the state in which they were born, for the sake of consistency wouldn’t it follow that Gingrich MUST WIN in PA (since he was born in that beautiful state) and that Santorum MUST WIN in VA because he was born in that gorgeous state—oops, he’s not on the ballot in VA.
tsk tsk another example of media bias.

Posted on February 26, 2012 at 7:09amMaybe Murdoch approves of Santorum’s values.
There is absolute truth which means that because of gravity, thing fall.
Relative truth means that two people holding opposite opinions can both be right

Posted on February 21, 2012 at 12:36amOF COURSE! All the USA and world knows and can repeatedly see what Rupert thinks just by seeing his media outlets, especially WSJ and FNC. All his puppets, stooges, and employees including those who claim to be Fair & Balanced, Journalists, Looking Out For You, etc etc are more bloated bloviating idiots than their competitors who are constant butt of their jokes, snide comments, and megamaniacal ravings. Did I also say I discontinued watching and using such media.
Oh, by the way, Eddie Scarry is even much worse, for your consideration.
