Santorum Only GOP Candidate Beating Obama, Rasmussen Daily Poll Finds

CNSNews reports that the latest Rasmussen Daily Tracking Poll shows Santorum as the ONLY candidate beating Obama in a head-to-head matchup:

(CNSNews.com) – Just ahead of three more Republican nominating contests, a new poll -- a snapshot in time -- shows former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum leading President Barack Obama in a one-on-one matchup.

[...]

The same daily tracking poll finds Obama actually beating former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, the GOP frontrunner, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Texas Rep. Ron Paul. Neither Obama nor the other GOP candidates gets a majority in any of the hypothetical matchups.

[...]

Obama wins 47 percent of the vote against Romney’s 43 percent, according to the Rasmussen daily poll for Feb. 5. Obama and Romney have been virtually tied in most polls for months. Obama leads Paul, 45-42 percent. Gingrich does worse among GOP candidates, losing to Obama 49-41 percent.

Santorum performs 5 points better against Obama than Romney does.

So, again, I ask: What is the justification for supporting "Mr. Electable", Dullard Flip Rino? From the perspective of BOTH conservatism AND electability, Santorum is a MUCH better choice.
