Rick Santorum just made a brief appearance at the Heritage Foundation’s GOP primary debate kick off luncheon at the new Hampshire institute of Politics at Saint Anslem College.
Brief gaggle where he said he was going to state clear positions as opposed to candidates who have “changed positions” over time. Obvious swipe at Romney and T-Paw. Reporters hammered away at Romney until phone call from Rick’s wife. “When she calls, I answer.”
Video to come.
Santorum, because of his low visibility and poor name recognition is an unjustifiably poorly advertised candidate. I read his articles and listened to his commentaries. He is wise in his analyses and deserves more attention than he is getting.
Although any of the candidates would be better than Obama (as would any dead cat) Santorum would be one of the best, IMHO.
Bob, about 5 or 6 years ago, it was somewhat well-known in NOVA that Sen Santorum had allowed his daughters to get involved with “Challenge”. As in Regnum Christi. As in Legion of Christ. I’d want to hear a little more from him about this example of extremely poor judgment: whether he’s wised up and backed away from them? Why did he make that stupid decision in the first place? I’m looking for a candidate with good decision-making skills.
And then there was the whole Pat Toomey/Arlen Specter debacle.
I like Santorum. My only problem with him as a candidate is his lack of experience.
