Get a grip, and some perspective.
you have no idea how liberal Santorum is outside of a few social issues......and you have no idea how offputting he is to the vast majority.
Considering those that have jumped in, or are planning to (in order of good to worse on the establishment/RINO scale):
Rand Paul
Carly Fiorina
Scott Walker
Marco Rubio
Mike Huckabee
Jeb Bush
NONE of them come CLOSE to Ted Cruz, and what he has to offer and where he stands in regards to the “establishment”, RINO’s and doing what he says he’s going to do, IMO. In fact, I would wager that Ted Cruz is the farthest candidate AWAY from the GOP-E. He is the ANTI-PROGRESSIVE. How can people not see this?
Wrong, wrong, wrong. Santorum is JUST AS BAD as those candidate you list. Or perhaps you aren’t familiar with his record and words???????
