Santorum certainly wasn't alone in his preference for Romney over John McCain in 2008. Many conservatives were desperate in 2008 for a not-McCain and rushed to embrace Romney because there were no other options at that point.

I even gave money to mittens in '08.

The thought of mcpain made my stomach hurt, but I voted for him when he got the nomination.

To go back and try to use the plaudits that Rick used to promote mittens over mcpain is really grasping at straws.

Santorum didn’t say he was holding his nose and supporting Romney or that Romney was the lesser of the evils. He said that Romney was a “true conservative.”

Santorum was either duped or he lied. There are two types of people who were duped by Romney in ‘08. Those of us who are man enough to admit it, and Santorum, who isn’t.
