I caught a snippet of an upcoming show on one of the so-called news shows, Prime Time, maybe. I didn't catch the entire promo, but it featured Santorum answering questions about a lawsuit filed for personal damages because his wife gained weight. Could someone please enlighten me? He was awarded $300,000 because his wife couldn't campaign, etc. I remember thinking that media is going all out to oust him.
Also, Michael Yon and Bill Rogio had some nice things to say about Santorum:
MilBloggers Go to Washington
By Bill Roggio
Yesterday, four MilBloggers, Michael Yon, Andi Carol, Steve Schippert and I had the opportunity to attend a press conference with Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania to highlight the efforts of our armed forces serving in Iraq.
We had the opportunity to speak with Senator Santorum personally for an extended period of time, and I was impressed by his passion and frustration on the issue of the media's representation of the war in Iraq. He expressed this in the press conference as well (video). Supporters of our military and improved coverage and insight into the war in Iraq have a committed ally in Senator Santorum.
I attended a SS reform seminar where Santorum spoke advocating the Bush plan. He was impressive. Santorum is a real conservative. I wouldn't write him off quite yet. He will do well in his head-to-head debates with Casey. Santorum's wife and six children make a model politcal family.
