Dem senator says Sen. Santorum was 'uncompromising'
The Hill ^ | 02/17/12 | Daniel Strauss

And very little interest in the views of those who disagree with him," Conrad said in an interview scheduled to air Friday evening on Bloomberg TV. "I think that would be my take on how Sen. Santorum conducted himself with his colleagues when he was in the Senate."

Conrad described Santorum, now contending for the Republican presidential nomination, as "unyielding and uncompromising."

Good!
I am sick up to here with Republicans who accept “just a little bit of cancer” from the Democrats in order to do the right thing for America.

I wish it were true. But then I don’t think Romney has him beat on that.
