Oh this is good for Newt...Santorum’s going first.

Santorum used Newt’s words...”Big things”...

Looks like they’ll be doing some Obama bashing!!!!!!

[caww]

Somebody asked for a link..that’s c-span link.

[Cboldt]

Santorum sounded nervous at first. Stumbled over what should have been rehearsed, easy phrases.

[onyx]

This is a little painful. I didn’t tune in to hear a speech by Santorum.

[AGreatPer]

This event is a well kept secret.

[onyx]

It’s LIVE on C-SPAN!

[Qwackertoo]

Newt should be FIRED UP with Carney’s remarks today. Can’t wait.

[EnglishCon]

Sen Santorum just handed his head to the Speaker - balanced budget and low gas prices.

Good on welfare so far though.

[Cboldt]

15 minute speeches by each, followed by questions. A good form, I think.

[caww]

SAntorum still makes us here in Pa furious....he doesn’t have a single endorsement from those he worked with....and we know well why that is. He’ll have a tough hoe here to win this state.

[onyx]

Not in our states: Mississippi and Alabama and we vote tomorrow.

[Christie at the beach]

Rick congratulating himself for cutting big government spending.

Good day...

[Toespi]

I didn’t know Santorum was from a coal mining town in PA. Had no idea he had seven children either.

[Qwackertoo]

it’ll be interesting to see what questions the 16 yr. old kid comes up with. not all of our younger generation are flakes . . . my daughter is not one either, she is a great little conservative but would probably be far too shy to ever participate in an event such as this.

[onyx]

OH. Thanks very much.

Very long 15 minutes.

[caww]

Santorum's singing Newt's lines.....

He says he will (later) purpose a plan....which means he doesn't have one.

[Red Steel]

“Very anti-fossil fuel administration. The left wing environmental movement hates oil.”

-Newt Gingrich

[EnglishCon]

Now he is stealing Newt’s rights speech. I like the guy, respect the guy, but Newt is setting the talking points for this primary.

[trappedincanuckistan]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[onyx]

Wait till he talks about his grandfather.

BTW, he hasn’t been in the Senate for 6 years
