Not true.
I've always liked Santorum..have considered him a rising star in the Republican party.
I actually prefered Santorum over Frist for the post of Senate ML.
But this controversy has really made me wonder about his political judgement.
I don't begrudge him his personal religious beliefs when it comes to the issue of sexual morality, in fact I share them.
But he should know that the majority of Americans don't want a govt that attempts to regulate the private sexual behavior of consenting adults when it comes homosexuality and adultery.
As a result, I now think Santorum has made himself look stupid and intemperate and the fact that he hasn't been able to gracefully diffuse the controversy makes me serious question his leadership abilities.
Fine. Then let them act like responsible citizens and elect legislatures that will repeal such laws. This isn't a question about the wisdom of such laws, but where the responsibility lies to pass or repeal them.
