I am a Christian and a Conservative. So far I have kept an open mind during the primaries. I have to admit that Santorum is growing on me. I like that he is not shy about his Christianity and pro-life beliefs. I even appreciated his honesty last night when he had to defend some positions he took in support of the “team”, while he was the Senate whip. Heck, most of the Senators who say they are supporting Romney, took the same positions as Rick. You don’t see Romney disowning their support. In my mind, Santorum has not hurt himself with his honesty and actually helped himself because it is refreshing in this day and age.

“he took in support of the “team”,”

If I may? Santorum did mention the word team and here is what he said. He was defending his liberal votes but mostly his support of Arlen Spector, who in fact changed parties, republican to democrat, which gave them the 60 votes they needed for Obamacare. He also defended several other liberal votes he had made and when he was stuck, he said, “POLITICS IS A TEAM SPORT.” Several times he admitted that he voted AGAINST his own principles. Don’t be fooled by this morality and religion, as I believe he is using it to obtain votes.
