To somehow lump Santorum in with Romney is bad enough, to lump him in with Obama is insane!
Santorum is and always has been a reliable CATHOLIC Conservative. That means he is much more conservative on social issues like Life and faith and somewhat less so on welfare and social services. He is however a relatively strong fiscal conservative with very few blemishes on his record for a long term Senator in a leadership position.
Anybody in congress can have a down the line Conservative rating if they are not in a leadership position, look at the lunatic Ron Paul. If you aspire to leadership and want to get things done you have to work within the system. Gingrich had to do it, Santorum had to do it, and The SCUMBAG Romney cherry picks small worthless votes and beets them both over the head with them.
I guess we should expect more of this as it becomes clear Santorum is the only alternative to Romney.
Hate to see so many here threatening to cut their nose off to spite their face, though. Its not the time to be pitching fits.
