Nationally, Team RED governors are worried about the tone and direction of the national campaign. National Journal:

On the sidelines of the National Governors Association Winter Meeting in Washington that wraps up on Monday, Republicans are skeptical that the reemergence of social issues in the political landscape is net positive for the party, and it’s clear they’re more comfortable steering the discussion toward the economy.

“Anything that distracts the campaign from President Obama’s policies and the effect of those policies is less beneficial than when we are talking about [them],” said former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour.

Even as the economy remains the primary political focus of both Democrats and Republicans, in recent weeks, social issues have reemerged in state and national politics.

Gee; sane people worried that there are people like Santorum out there who likes to talk about the “dangers of contraception” and other such culture war Christian morality claptrap that is a big fat highway to fucking nowhere amongst the vast majority of voters? You don’t fuckin’ say.

The day cannot come fast enough when cultural conservatism is a non-starter in national politics, and Team RED once again learns to focus on small government in all aspects of our lives. Until then, they can go fuck themselves and their so-called morality.
