Video: Gay Former Aide to Santorum Stands Up For His Boss

January 6, 2012 – 3:30 pm

Via TownHall, Chris Matthews attempts to bait Robert Traynham into impugning the character of his former boss, Rick Santorum. Traynham, to his credit, won’t stand for it and presents Santorum’s views far more fairly than the interviewer.

NRO on Santorum's Speech: "Simply the Best Republican Rhetoric"

January 5, 2012 – 2:30 pm

From former Rep. Atur Davis in NRO: The case for Rick Santorum — and yes, at this juncture, that phrase still feels weird — is that he is a conviction conservative with immigrant, middle-class roots who empathizes with battered places Republicans normally don’t see.

January 5, 2012 – 1:00 pm

He writes in the Washington Post: …Rick Santorum has become central because Iowa Republicans ignored an axiom that is as familiar as it is false: Democrats fall in love, and Republicans fall in line.
