Pat Boone is rooting for Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum, the singer announced over the weekend.
"I am excited to endorse Rick Santorum for President. I've known Rick for many years and Rick has been a consistent defender of conservatism and the values our great nation was founded upon,” Boone said in a statement provided by the Santorum campaign on Sunday.
Comparing the former senator to Ronald Reagan, the 77-year-old singer said Santorum is “experienced, honest, and deeply principled.”
Happy about the nod, Santorum said in the release, "I am proud to receive Pat's endorsement today. Pat has been a stalwart advocate for conservatism dating back to his days campaigning for Ronald Reagan in California. I always enjoyed working with Pat during my time in the Senate and look forward to working with him moving forward as we look to restore core American principles to the Oval Office this November."

I won’t hold it against Santorum. He still seems like an OK guy.
Boone is a good guy.
Oh goody, can I wear my check pants and bring my own lamp shade? I hear Dole, McCain, Spectre, Lieberman, and all the other wild and crazy guys are gonna be their... Don’t forget to wear your Old Spice...
Boone is a good guy; while it wouldn’t have changed the world, I’d think his endorsement prior to Nevada might have been worth a percentage point or two given his lengthy association with Vegas.
Is this bad or good?
You can choose your friends but not your endorsers.
He could do worse: Pete Wilson (Romneybot, CA) for example.
Pat Boone is a liberal stealth Romney shill. I just know it.
He stinks. Go SNewt!

That’s enough to persuade me not to buy his next hip hop album1
Santorum was ok until he spoke up for the election of Arlin Specter. Santorum can count out this entire Pennsylvania family giving him a no vote. He does what he has to do to feather his own nest.
That’s not any worse than the blasphemy of recording Tutti Frutti and Ain’t that a Shame.
Pat’s a good guy. Santorum’s my fav #2.
So, if I wear white buck shoes to the Caucus tomorrow night, am I guilty of electioneering?
santorum is a weak sister but Boone is a good Conservative Christian and he has the right to endorse his choice.

We anxiously await the endorsements of Fabian Forte, Frankie Avalon and Bobby Rydell!
The really good news is that Rasmussen has reported that Santorum would beat Obama. That’s a first for Santorum.
He wears English Leather ... or nothing at all.

I think it is good. Pat is good people.
