Rick Santorum endorses Romney

Boston, MA – Today, former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) announced his endorsement of Governor Mitt Romney. Senator Santorum served two terms in the United States Senate where he was also Chairman of the Senate Republican Conference, the third-ranking member of the Republican leadership.

"In a few short days, Republicans from across this country will decide more than their party's nominee. They will decide the very future of our party and the conservative coalition that Ronald Reagan built. Conservatives can no longer afford to stand on the sidelines in this election, and Governor Romney is the candidate who will stand up for the conservative principles that we hold dear," said Senator Santorum. "Governor Romney has a deep understanding of the important issues confronting our country today, and he is the clear conservative candidate that can go into the general election with a united Republican party."

Announcing Senator Santorum's support, Governor Romney said, "I am honored to have Senator Santorum's support. Throughout his career of public service, he has always led with a steadfast commitment to our party's conservative principles. He has fought for life, marriage, tax cuts and a stronger national defense. In the coming days, I look forward to working with him as we fight for our party's conservative foundations."

Notice the difference in the kind of men who are endorsing Romney vs. the kind of men who are endorsing McCain.

Romney gets true conservative men of character like Rick Santorum while McCain gets worthless RINOs like Arnold Schwarzenegger (who recently sat down with the editorial board of a major CA newspaper and apologized for being a Republican).

You can tell a great deal about a man by looking at who his friends are. Bill Clinton tells us that McCain and Hillary Clinton are close friends. McCain approached John Kerry about possibly becoming Kerry's running mate in 2004. The New York Times endorses John McCain.

Left-liberal members of the Senate know that if they want a RINO to cosponsor a piece of legislation which will do horrible damage to the liberty or prosperity of the USA that they can always find an eager partner in John McCain.

John McCain keeps the wrong kind of company to be a Republican candidate for anything.
