Santorum is an undeservingly maligned man
I tend to agree...although not to the point of supporting him politically.
I do not think he has been able to quite reconcile the fact that not every one has the same point of view as he, and as a result, he comes off as a little bit "preachy", much like Huckabee can do sometimes, just not as "Old Time Religion" fashion.
He did make a very good point in this instance, though, and drove it home, much to the chagrin of Scarborough.
He's maligned because he continuously runs for the nomination. Unlike Huckabee, Santorum didn't land a Fox News show or even a Fox News regular commentator role like Sarah Palin did for a goodly time.
Look at Huckabee now ... polling 3%. After he made his millions, he gave up his FNC Saturday night show to run again! Huckabee's time (if any) was in 2012, but 2012 was "Mitt's turn," and the Huckster wanted to make money. Sorry Huck, you have your money, but you can't have the presidency now.
These politicians, especially former office holders have their motives and I think lining their own pockets is always a major part of their goal. Winning isn't always everything, except when it comes to Donald Trump.
Too bad.
Agree!
And he took a lot of abuse on FR when he was running last time.
undeservingly maligned man...No. One note Rick has just recently realized that Christians and civilization are threatened MORE by Muslims than abortion, because abortions are part of the Muzzie strategy for taking over Civilization.
