Santorum certainly wasn't alone in his preference for Romney over John McCain in 2008. May conservatives were desperate in 2008 for a not-McCain and rushed to embrace Romney because there were no other options at that point. So Santorum is certainly not the only conservative who was fooled by Romney's fake to his right. But he's the only one now running for president who believed Romney had become a true conservative. If Romney played him so effortlessly, what would Putin do to a President Santorum?

Played, hell politics is politics, rush and Levin both supported Willard over McCain, the loser, then they both tried to get McCain elected. There is nothing in this but another noot attack.

I’m stickin with Rick. If we can overlook some far more serious failings on the part of Gingrich, we can definitely overlook a strategic endorsement.
For that matter, the same people throwing a little tantrum about it would throw the exact same tantrum if he had endorsed McCain (who is himself backing Romney this time)
My congressman has offered a weak endorsement of Romney this time. I don’t like it but he’s a freshman facing some serious party pressure.

The thought of mcpain made my stomach hurt, but I voted for him when he got the nomination.
To go back and try to use the plaudits that Rick used to promote mittens over mcpain is really grasping at straws.

I and everyone else on FR wanted to stop Juan McLame in 2008. Santorum was no different.
But how many of us joined Newt Gingrich in THIS endorsement?
The special election for the 23rd Congressional District is an important test leading up to the mid-term 2010 elections. Our best chance to put responsible and principled leaders in Washington starts here, with Dede Scozzafava.

And Santorum will say similar things in 2012 if Romney wins the nomination: the bottom line is Obama must be defeated.

This is all they got? I would back Romney over McCain too. I guess the pro Romney forces are saying, “Don’t trust anyone who would support Romney, ever”.

The recent Lemming stampede to Santorum will be short lived. It may appear to be the thing to do in the Conservative base for the moment, but don't forget that there is a National election to win, and we need a candidate who can handle the MSM.
Knowing your history, there is little to no chance that you will agree with me, which is not my purpose. But now that you are so convinced that Santorum will be the savior, of all that is pure and conservative, give just a few reasons why you think that Santorum WILL save this country.
By saying that, I mean, I need a list of exactly what plan or plans, that Santorum has in place that will fix this mess. Do you really know? I am not looking for quotes from his rather boring speeches or debate responses. I am looking for detailed list of his planned approach with documented solutions, if he is elected President. In other words, make it exactly the same thing that Speaker Gingrich has already provided for us, in great detail.
(Take your time, because you will be doing a whole lot of fruitless searching.)

And if you pay attention....2008 was BEFORE the TARP bailout and Obamacare and 15 TRILLION dollars of wasteful spending.
End of story
