And compromising with liberals is not one of my convictions.
Why didn't Santorum support Pat Toomey in his primary challenge the first go around?

It’s pretty difficult for a junior Senator to oppose the senior Senator from his own state. I am sure Santorum now regrets his decision.

Tennessean4Bush asked: “Why didn't Santorum support Pat Toomey in his primary challenge the first go around?”

Perhaps a similar reason to why Sarah Palin supported John McCain in the Arizona Republican primary?

Loyalty counts not only in marriage but also in politics. Sometimes that means standing by commitments we wish we hadn't made.

Commitments should be made carefully knowing that if they're made wrongly, we risk being attacked either as a traitor to our commitments or as a traitor to our convictions.
