Sigh. Same ole talking points. Did you know that Rick endorsed Romney JUST BEFORE Romney dropped out only because he thought he was better than McCain? HARDLY a ringing endorsement.

Who was YOUR candidate in 2012, and did he finally endorse Romney as well?

If you did your research, you would know that Rick endorsed Arlen Specter because he thought Arlen could win, and as head of the Judicial Committee, Specter would see that Bush’s nominees would be able to get their up or down vote. Rick said that Alito would not have been Justice, if it weren’t for Specter. If Pat Toomey were the U.S. Senator at the time, he would not have been a leader in the Judicial Committee, he would have been just another senator.

I can understand if you don’t agree with Rick on this, but his logic made sense, because we have a really great Justice in Alito. Sounds to me like Rick did the right thing.

And I’ll let Rick Santorum answer your other comment:

“I won my first four races. I’m four out of five — not bad — and three of the first four races I ran twice for the House, once against this incumbent Democrat. The second time I got redistricted into a 71% Democratic district against another incumbent Democrat. I won that seat. The third time I ran for the Senate in Pennsylvania with 600,000 more registered Democrats Republicans, against another Democratic incumbents, I won that — and then in 2000 when George Bush lost the state by four points I won it by five. In 2006 it was a horrible election year,”

Same old talking points?

Fighting for Arlen Specter to defeat Toomey in 2010, until Specter finally switched to the democrat party?

Endorsing and campaigning to make the GOP a pro-abortion party?

Making history by being thrown out of office by a bigger margin than the rookie Christine O’Donnell lost by when she has never even held office?

He was a Newtbot.

Last I checked it was his nominee that endorsed gay marriage when he wasn’t running as a staking horse for Romney. And a magnificant staking horse he was.

" Who was YOUR candidate in 2012, and did he finally endorse Romney as well? "

It's funny how inconvenient facts works against them.

You need to ask them in whom did their guy endorse in 2008, did their guy endorse John McCain ?
It's funny how they bash Rick Santorum for endorsing Mitt Romney in 2008, but who did their guy endorse ?
The 2 top contenders in 2008, John McCain and Mitt Romney.
