OH NO! this is just the icing on the cake. There is much more to come..stay tuned.

On Spector; “Santorum was effectively returning a favor by endorsing Specter despite his aggressive pro-abortion-rights views. Specter had supported Santorum’s 1994 Senate campaign.

Six years later, Santorum supported Specter again — this time in his hard-fought Senate primary battle against Pat Toomey. Conservatives targeted Specter for defeat because of his moderate to liberal views on abortion, gun control and government spending.

Among those supporting Toomey’s primary challenge to Specter: a certain Massachusetts governor named Mitt Romney.

Santorum not only supported Specter. He ran an ad for him.

“Arlen is with us on the votes that matter,” Santorum said in an ad for Specter. “I’m proud to endorse Arlen Specter.”

I think that is a bad issue to run against Rick with. Rick endorsed Arlen over supposedly more conservative Toomey. However, Toomey turned out to be a liberal. He voted YES to gays in the military. I know you have other things to bash Santorum with but this one is probably not going to work. Just a bit of advice.

Here is how politics works - those who help you, you help. Once you get a reputation for turning on those who help you your political career is pretty much finished.

It is not pretty but that is the way a representative democracy has always worked and how it will always work.

This is irrelevant as far as this election goes and such attacks can only help the Left and Urkel. I expect many more as Rick gets stronger.
