Drudge has been corrupted by power and riches.

While it may be clever for Romney to use it in a commercial. It is disingenuous for Drudge to tout it again and in such a front page blazing way. This is old news even in this campaign cycle. Drudge's portrayal is a blatant shill job for Romney.

Rick should have figured out how to deal with this after Iowa. The audio and video of Santorum standing with Romney and saying “This is not the campaign, nobody puts words in my mouth, the words out of my mouth were that if you want a conservative as the nominee of this party, you must vote for Mitt Romney’.

Very damning.

That’s possible.

Or maybe he just thought there would be a lot more hits on Drudge if we had Obama as president.

And I’m sure he has had more hits than he would have had.

But the Republic is coming apart at the seams.

"Disingenuous"?! What the heck does that mean?

Everyone knows that Drudge is supporting Mitt Romney. We can tweet, swat, stamp our feet and pout .... but that's not going to change who Drudge supports. And NO ... he doesn't have to be fair and balanced.

So let's exhale and save some strength. We've got a hell of a fight ahead of us.

Drudge, If I were forced to choose between McCain & Romney, keyword “forced”, I would choose Romney. Today I get to PICK RICK

Awhile back (and sporadically since then) people were accusing Drudge of being a Romney fanboy.

I disagreed with that.

After this I am couldn’t possibly agree more.

What’s the big deal? All this tells me is that Romney was the conservative compared to McCain. That is nothing to brag about.

I think Drudge (and Mitt) are raising a great point. I the man was a qualified conservative candidate 4 years ago, what’s happened to change that today? The only thing I can see is that Rick now wants to be pres.

We should file an FEC complaint, determine how much Drudge charges for banner ads, triple it, and assess a per-diem dollar contribution amount from Matt Drudge to Romney 2012. It may well constitute a violation.

Drudge isn’t even trying to hide the fact that he is 100% in the tank for Romney.

Yes, it's rather... disturbing. What's up with Drudge these days??

Glad I voted and supported Newt. Matt's not done with Santorum. haven't been to Matt's site much lately after Bloody Thursday- Still shell-shocked. One day, as I run cross him here in town, I am going to tell him he has lost my respect. I am sure he will attack Newt again; if need be. His site was so refreshing to get the untainted news. Alot of bad things are happening this year.

Santorum had very nice, conservative related things to say about Romney in 2008. Now, Santorum is just a hypocrite to say otherwise. Whatta doofus.
