I seriously doubt it. How many times have you heard the phrase "Government n-word"? He did start to say something and then clearly changed his mind, fumbled and recovered, but I doubt anyone who uses that word would be so careless as to slip up in front of a podium...

Uh, we are talking about Santorum, the guy who wants to ban porn and has a fetish against "pink bowling balls". I think you expect too much of him.

I'm trying to think what he would have been trying to say.
"Anti war, government ...."
I also don't think he was about to say the n-word...but I can't figure out what he was going to say.
Candidates usually give the same speeches over and over...I wonder if anyone can find the same segment of a different speech.

It could be, but he didn't say it, so it can't be proven.

See here's the thing, if he had just messed up he would have gone back and repeated himself. He didn't, he just started a whole new sentence. I think it was a bit of a Freudian slip.

Ok, but you can't prove otherwise. So, we agree to disagree.

I think you might want to re-read what I said. You are confused. You cannot prove he didn't intend to say it, I cannot prove he did intend to say it. I can merely say what I think and that is my right, therefore we agree to disagree.
