Rick Santorum Still Won’t Endorse Mitt Romney
ABCNews ^ | 4/24/2012 | Shushana Walshe

Rick Santorum went up to the edge of endorsing Mitt Romney this evening, but failed to pull the trigger despite many attempts by CNN’s Piers Morgan to get him to say the word. Clearly frustrated by Santorum not dancing around the endorsement of Romney, Morgan at one point said, “Spit it out.”

"NO - I will not endorse. I repudiate Mitt Romney and all of his lies."

You must be from the Logical Planet.

We're all out here in the Twilight Zone.

All one can do is keep campaigning.

Campaigning and promoting is one thing, but continually slamming a guy that ran in this race, came up short and exited is getting tired. I don't see constant slamming of any of the other ex candidates the like of what I responded to.

In the real world; when one of them do endorse (Palin, Newt, Rick) there will be a huge let down for a number of committed conservatives (there will go some votes for the fall). It would had been nice to see someone outsmart the media (like Newt was for awhile- until the media saw what he was capable of) It is very difficult to get the truth out when so many people believe almost everything they hear on TV !! Those kind of voters are giving us these moderates and career job seekers. These voters fall into this belief that only moderates(political correct politicians can win) Some voters are becoming too tired so they give up (by doing so, we get a moderate, a liberal who has no core beliefs to conservatism(unless he has a written speech)Rick dropped out knowing he would not win PA and he had talk radio helping him (and they keep on making fun of Newt while their guy slips by into helping Romney. Rick and Newt by principle should not go along with Romney. That is insane to do! We are watching these people (hello)

Their endorsements will mean nothing to me. I have my principles and no politician can make me abandon them.

For the naive who fall for the ABO line, they will be in for a cruel awakening.

If Mitt does win, by his third year, nothing much will have improved. I looked at Mitt's platform and there is nothing bold enough to turn things around.

Mitt is not a trail blazing leader that has the will or intelligence to face the reality of our Republic's demise. It seems Mitt's only goal is to "be" President.

He will lie and smear to attain that goal.

So, after a few years of Mitt aligning with the RINOS and RATs in Congress, the government will be much bigger, much more intrusive (especially with AGW solutions embedded all over).

So, the misery will remain and the MSM will be ranting 24/7, "See Conservatives are screwing up everything, nothing is improving." They will be partly right because Mitt can only win if enough Conservatives fall for the ABO line.

To the fools that will vote for Mitt, I want them to realize that not only will Mitt help finish off our Republic, but the Conservatives will be solely blamed.

So please, I wish all the ABO fools could tell me how Mitt will be a good choice for our Republic.

Your an odd duck. Of course I don’t. The ‘10 election destroyed the Rat party on all levels and branches of Govt’ here. All we have left to remove is Sen Boob Casey Jr.

And notice how all the Mitt-Mandate fans here, rarely (I’ve never seen one), SPECIFICALLY state what his plans are.

Bill, Hill, Joe (notice how he won’t endorse the Undocumented Coffee Server), and the Controlling Federal-Gov. Bloc, are all celebrating the soon appointment of Mandate-Mitt over the Undocumented Coffee Server.

**Rick Santorum Still Won’t Endorse Mitt Romney((

Good. No Catholic should endorse a Mormon.

The headline implies that he should. ABC must not understand that conservatives aren’t given to group think.

Amen!

Santorum, don’t do it!!~~@@!

I heard earlier this evening after the Primary results,
a new line. “Romney is for religious freedom.”

He sure is, believe whatever you want but Mitt will never speak about the core belief of Mormonism.

Laz, Laz, Laz,...I see slamming of Newt Gingrich all the time, and most of it is really old stuff, like Democratic talking points from the 1990s. I can’t let that get me down, and you shouldn’t let the Santorum version of it get you down either. We both know there are some very nasty people on FR.

Glory be to Santorum for not buckling under the pressure. I am so proud of Santorum. He is so outstanding. Thank God he is only 54. He is our President in 2016 after Romney loses his butt in November. Hopefully Goode can win, but if not Santroum is NEXT IN LINE!!!! YES!!!! We are so lucky to have him ready to go in four years. For now vote for Newt in the rest of the states. I know some here don’t like Newt, but he is 100 percent better than Romney. Newt just does not have the necessary tools that Santorum has to be President.

The only person that took out Gingrich was Gingrich.
