Sources told CNN Wednesday that Rick Santorum is dropping out of the 2016 presidential race.
"Another GOP departure: CNN has learned @RickSantorum will exit race tonight. Plans endorsement."
-- John King (@JohnKingCNN) February 3, 2016
The former Pennsylvania senator's exit comes close on the heels of Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul 's Wednesday announcement.
Sounds good to me!
Jeb? Marco? John? Carly?
Naw, Gilmore actually got 12 votes in Iowa. “Other” got 119.
What about "Not Sure"?
Interesting that Rick chooses Gretta’s show to make the announcement.
Not an official category, “Others” was. For write-ins I presume.
I don’t see how Trump’s and Santorum’s platforms are similar, except they both embrace ethanol subsidies. Ethanol subsidies are a huge mistake.
Trump pretends to be for some of the social issues, but I don’t believe him. I don’t believe Trump’s flip flops any more than I believed Romney’s. There were just too many of them, just before they decided to run for POTUS.
Trump has always been pro abortion, even supporting 3rd trimester abortions in a televised interview. Period. Completely untrustworthy on this issue notwithstanding your delusions.
It does not matter if trump claims he is pro life today, because he’ll contradict himself tomorrow.
Wake up.
Rubio
when will people stop pushing well-spoken-YOUNG-senators -with zero-experience on us?!!
Pls remove me from your list. After today I no longer support Trump.
as Palin said: we try to get people to see the light on the terrible facts of abortion and when one finally does, it is suspect. Sad....let’s celebrate that he changed his mind as we want all to!
Santorum endorsed Rubio a few minutes ago on Greta Von Frankenstein. Maybe he can let little Marco know that as a Catholic he can’t go to Mass every other week and go to his wife protestant service the next week, without attending Mass. That’s what this little twerp does. I’ve heard him in interviews.
FYI, you might have heard by now that Rick Santorum endorsed Rubio.
Both Santorum and Rubio are truly strong on the social issues, but Santorum received an A rating from Numbers USA, and Rubio was part of the Gang of 8 (sadly).
crazy - Rubio!
Goes to show we can’t trust politicians. Santorum must not have meant a thing he said!
>> Sir, all due respect, you have a severe case of TDS, please seek help <<
Thanks! I’ll look into it!
Rick Santorum was running? Really???
Rick’s endorsement of Rubio explains a lot. He’s just not smart enough to pick the winner in this race or be VP.
Following politics is so disheartening. Just about everyone I root for turns out to be only in it for self interest. I
Jesse Helms is an exception, and Ted Cruz as a child and young man was a great admirer of Senator Helms.
