Former Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum launched a new conservative group on Friday with the goal of recruiting 1 million members to help get Democratic President Barack Obama out of the White House.

“”We’re going to be holding candidates accountable ..”

That’s what we need to do - FOLLOW UP and see if they keep their conservative promises.
