I wish that he’d do the same class act as Perry and bow out gracefully. If he did that, I think his state supporters, when he did another run for the Senate would, at least look upon him as a favourable possibility.

  I think ulysse is saying that Santorum doesn't have to bow out if his supporters vote strategically in this winner take all contest. Santorum doesn't gain any delegates in a winner take all that almost certainly will go to either Gingrich or Romney. I makes sense to vote for the remaining conservative who can win: Newt. If every one of his supporters goes to the polls and votes, it could easily push Gingrich over the top.

The GOP E promised him more - if he runs again anywhere for office they will make sure he wins. That’s the way it works anymore like we see from this election.

The time for that would have been no later than Friday. He has missed the window for “class act”.

I’ve been trying to tell Santorum supporters for a while now, he’s not the guy you think he is.. yes he’s a social conservative, but he LOST PA FOR A REASON (a mulititude actually) He’s liked outside of PA far more than INSIDE for a REASON folks.

This guy isn’t what you think he is, he’s not evil, but he’s not remotely this tried and true conservative that folks think he is.

He got trounced in PA by a virtual no show oponent because he deserved to be, not simply because it was a bad year for R’s not simply because he endorced Spectre, but because he systematically drove away those who would have been his allies by repeated acts that were counter to what he SAID he believed in.

This guy is playing spoiler and ensuring a romney nomination at this point, and that’s all he will ever be able to do.. and the longer he stays in to do this, the more its obvious that he’s working with the establishment to ensure Romney is the nominee. I don’t care what he says.
