Crazy. You’d think if he was supporting Gingrich that he’d move his money to Santorum.....

This race is getting crazier by the day.........hold on......

Since Adelson made his money in gambling, I suspect he’s looking to get offshore gambling legalized in the States.

He’s more likely to get that from Romney than from Santorum.

Adelson finds Santorum’s brand of social conservatism unpalatable. Adelson is an evil manipulator.

He is being investigated for violating federal bribery laws. This is the guy who provided a lifeline to Gingrich to checkmate Santorum.

Unequivocally, I will say Rick would not accept Adelson's money, even if asked.
His standards wouldn't allow it.

Not at all. Santorum is a social conservative only. Which goes against Casino interests. He is a big government/union guy, which goes against Adelson's and Casino interests.

While I appreciate Santorum on his social agenda, I have no interest in him regarding anything else. I think he would be a problem as president. Maybe even more so than Romney, as he would eventually split the party along ideological lines

You would think so wouldn't you, but with Rick being so Evangelical and all, he would be against gambling types and snub the money. If he took the money many of his supporter and media would then say hypocrite.

Adelson wants to beat Obama, so he would put his money where it would count. I want him to stay with NEWT GINGRICH, who is not coming across as America's preacher man.

We are Christians, and we sometimes buy a lottery ticket. One of our Elders once said that if he knew money was coming into the Church coffers that was from gambling, he would refuse it. DUH! Like the money was evil?

The problem with Santorum is that he’s not really out there attacking obama.
