You sound like you are buying the MSM Kool-aid. Santorum is one of the most conservative members of Congress with a lifetime ACU rating of 87. In 2004 it was 96. Santorum has been one of the most active supporters of Bush's SS reform plan including PAs.
I dont know if they rate presidents but what would Bush's ACU rating be? 35%? btw I checked my state's members there in the ratings....gaaaaaaaaa. the highest one's lifetime was 39% but there is one republican with 96% I am suprised about my congressmens rating of lifetime rating of 14% even tho he is a democrat he seems to do right with soldiers and veterns he is on the armed forces committee. Oh yeah we would have a republican senator if the RNC hadn't left him flapping in the breeze in 2004 he got out spent 7 to 1 by the democrats. and only lost by a few percentage points. thanks RNC
