I trust Santorum will be a committed and effective social conservative. Moreso than pretty much any of the other candidates (including Perry, who I support). That is not his problem. If he keeps riding this horse, he will fall. He has an opportunity now, with all this publicity, to expand his base. To address concerns that he is a Bush-Hcukabee Compassionate Conservative, which is toxic among most conservatives. He has to hit that hard or else people will fall away.
Dear Patriot:
It’s Now or Never for Conservative voters. We can either unite now behind one candidate and have a conservative standard bearer in 2012, or have the GOP establishment choose another moderate Republican who will have a difficult time defeating Barack Obama in November.
I don’t think that’s what you want. Neither do I. My name is Rick Santorum, and I am the only authentic, passionate conservative who can unite the GOP.
I need an URGENT contribution of at least $35 today to unite conservative voters and win the Republican nomination.
We shocked the world in Iowa. We did it with a coalition of conservatives, Tea Party members, and values voters who recognized that my successful conservative record gives the GOP the best chance to defeat Barack Obama.
