The next states where Republicans will be voting in one week are Arizona and Michigan. Michigan is particularly important because it is the home state of Republican contender Mitt Romney. Now that Rick Santorum is the main opponent of Romney people have to pay attention to what comes out of his mouth.
This happened just this week. Santorum comparing Obama to Hitler. Santorum's spokesman talking about the radical Islamic policies of Obama.
In the polls Rick Santorum is doing almost as well as Romney:
ARIZONA (PPP): Romney 36, Santorum 33, Gingrich 16, Paul 9
MICHIGAN (PPP): Santorum 37, Romney 33, Paul 15, Gingrich 10
MICHIGAN (We Ask America): Romney 29, Santorum 29, Paul 12, Gingrich 10
Look at Texas though... wow. Luckily for Romney Texans won't vote till May 29.
University of Texas/Texas Tribune. 2/8-15.

Come on this was clearly a simple slip of the tongue.

It shows that Santorum has hired a bigoted spokesperson to work for his bigoted campaign, and that what she routinely says about Obama amongst friends and associates accidentally came out on tv.
