Santorum launched a lot of vicious personal attacks on Gingrich in Iowa and in fact was even worse than Romney at the outset. Santorum has spent his entire career in DC and has never made any waves, although he was so personally unpopular that he lost his last election by 700,000 votes.

He may disagree with Romney on some things, but overall, they’re both big-government guys and I think you’ll see them working out their differences before too long. Otherwise, Romney will start to attack Santorum (which he has not done yet), and believe me, Santorum will not want this and will “settle” with Romney right away.

Wrong on all counts. Santorum made plenty of waves and fought for a conservative agenda. He’s nothing like Romney and has tried to get the people to understand what’s at stake with Romneycare.

He won two terms as PA Senator before he lost one. The one he lost was to a favorite son and a year where Republicans took a huge hit.

If you scrutinize any candidate’s records you’re going to find things you disagree with. People are now criticizing Rubio and calling him a RINO and I’m not even sure what their beef is.

Time to stop tearing these guys down. Disagree with their policies but don’t make baseless accusations or projections and don’t insult them personally. That only hurts our cause.
