What can one draw from the endorsements that occurred today. Rick Santorum is a social conservative who has served in the Senate and did very well in his previous run for the White House. His strong hawkish views on foreign policy and economic populist message is something that resonated then. Mr. Santorum’s also pulled himself up from a blue collar background to be a successful in a blue state. He lost in his reelection attempt as a Senator by taking a strong stance on the Iraq War even when it was an extremely unpopular position. What do you conclude here.

He lost his 2nd term as a Massachusetts Senator and then tried to run as a Senator from the neighboring state of New Hampshire. Scott Brown was unsuccessful in this attempt. What do you conclude here?
