Santorum won the majority of the counties in the 10th- he is still loved by a large percentage of Republicans and you guys can't give the guy any credit. As soon as he announces that he will be running agian all the republicans will say they can't believe he waited this long to get back in. Plain and simple this endorsement is huge for Meuser. I can't stand hackett for what he did on illegal immigration. I was leaning towards him right up until I find out that hackett paid to have mexican president Vincente "send all my poor people to America" Fox to come and speak at the liberal Wilkes University and then hackett protests him to get some free press. Because of that my ticket is now "Anybody but Hackett". What a joke.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12535855190345201904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-65513695390132573782007-12-07T00:37:00.000-05:002007-12-07T00:37:00.000-05:00tsk tsk tsk Even Santorum has a price.tsk tsk tsk Even Santorum has a price.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12341882.post-8601740391956640532007-12-06T23:08:00.000-05:002007-12-06T23:08:00.000-05:00Anon 11:04, come on, don't pick on Scott.
