Does Santorum have any of his former Senate or House collegues or present Congressmen endorsing him?

That’s because he wasn’t doing well until recently.

Most of his Senate colleagues like McCain are Romneybots.

I love Newt... but Santorum is more likable... and will make us competitive in the rust belt.

He is the most electable candidate... so you’re sounding like sour grapes here.

Congressional endorsements would be the death knell for Santorum. If I were running, I would actually brag about not having received any congressional endorsements. It’s a badge of honor. The last thing I would solicit is congressional endorsements.

I wouldn’t be bragging too much about Fred Thompson’s support. He’s joined team Soros in pimping the national popular vote.

Santorum rambles and borders on incoherent when he speaks. He almost put his wife and daughter to sleep when they stood behind him during his CPAC speech.

Wait a minute....its important that you get endorsements from people who serve in an institution that routinely has an approval rating of somewhere betwenn 10 and 20 %.

I’m not thrilled that my congressman has offered a weak endorsement or Romney but I think it came as a result of him being a freshman under pressure from the party.

Is this one an endorsement?

Glenn Beck, November 2011, “If there is one guy out there that is the next George Washington, the only guy that I could think of is Rick Santorum. I would ask that you would take a look at him.”

Not sure that he does. However, the pedigree of a former or current congressional RINO’s endorsement does not sway me the least. RINO GOPers are this country’s problem, particularly as the last legal defense against Obama and fascist liberalism. They’ve given up (the multiple-term ones) and they are not to be trusted one bit.

The arguement that Rick is more electable, is just your assumption. No one can say with any certainty who is electable until they are actually elected.

Part of “electability” is looking Presidential. Santorum needs to work on that a lot more.
