They should attack some of Obama’s attempt to push his social agenda (on sexual matters in particular) not on the merits, but on the fact that Obama is usurping powers he doesn’t have, and which belong to the Congress or the states – but not to the President.

In all fairness, none of the Republicans disagree with each other when it comes to economic policy (Cain with his opposition to the payroll tax was a bit different but not all that much)– so they have to talk about something. Actually, they don’t really disagree much when it comes to social policies (other than Paul who is a libertarian/anarchist on social matters).

Perhaps they could discuss fashion – but would a debate over the virtues of a sweater vest really interest people?

Hopefully, after losing both Michigan and Arizona, Santorum will realize Americans don’t want a “mashgiach ruchani” but somone who can manage our national economy. His mindless obcession with birth control and other scoial issues will go down as a huge strategic mistake. Since he doesn’t have a Sheldon Adelson funding his PAC, his money will dry up so quickly, he will have to pass around a pushka at his campaign rallys for Super Tuesday.
