Next up: ‘Sundays With Santorum’ on Fox News
It wasn’t anywhere near as entertaining as Herman Cain’s announcement, nor as revealing as Michele Bachmann’s, nor as long-overdue as Rick Perry’s, but Rick Santorum definitely took the gold for moral grandiloquence as he officially ended his bid for the presidency Tuesday.

Santorum: ‘Damn right’ we cling to guns and religion
HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pennsylvania — White House hopeful Rick Santorum revived a divisive political firestorm from the 2008 campaign Wednesday, reminding voters “you’re damn right” that blue-collar Pennsylvanians cling to guns and religion. “Barack Obama four years ago referred to this area of Pennsylvania, right here, as a place that clings to…

Maddow: Santorum campaign like the comments on a birther blog
