I think Palin hasn't endorsed anybody because I have a feeling that she is seriouly thinking about getting into the race. She can see that there is no clear candidate.
This is great news for Paul. As Republicans desperately try to find a non-Conservative who holds their views, Paul is keeping consistent. As the other RINOs keep falling out of the race, it really boils down to establishment Republicans and Ron Paul.
While I wish more Republicans would embrace Conservatism, this is good news for the Ron Paul campaign.

I hate to burst your bubble but Paul is not doing good and has no chance of winning. He seems like a nice guy though.
Actually, Santorum is also fiscal conservative. If you check, he actually authored the Welfare Reform Act that Newt forced Clinton to sign. He also authored and sponsored several other government reform bills that reduced government and were passed back in the 90's.
He DOES have some problems with his views on the roll of government in the states...especially for constitutional conservatives like me...but he is a VAST improvement over Obama and MUCH better than Obama lite...Romney. ;~)
i am still amazed at how hard the gop is trying to lose the 2012 election

Spending is another story. The free-market advocacy group Club for Growth describes Santorums fiscal record as conservative early on, but plagued by the big-spending habits that Republicans adopted during the Bush years of 2001-2006.
Data from the National Taxpayers Union shows that Santorum ranked in the top third among Senate Republicans for highest amount of proposed funding increases during the 107th Congress. He sponsored legislation to raise federal spending by a net $27 billion during that period, from January 2001 to January 2003.
Santorum’s record on fiscal policy (Fact Checker biography) - The Washington Post
He supported steel tariffs in Pennsylvania, which did him little good in his own re-election effort.
He supported No Child Left Behind.
He supported the prescription drug benefit.
He supported the Bridge to Nowhere. In fact, according to Club for Growth, Santorum had the audacity to vote to continue funding the Bridge to Nowhere rather than send the money to rebuild New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

The problem with Santorum is he is a social conservative. When a liberal is a social liberal, we call them socialists because they want to use the state to further their views and policies in society. It's really no different for social conservatives with their laundry list of items to make America better. For a Republican to win in 2012, they will have to attract the swing voters and independents. I don't think Sanotrum can pull that off. If he gets on his moral high horse and starts preaching about marriage amendments and abortion, he will hand the election to Obama. The Republican candidate has to focus on the economy and jobs to beat Obama.
Sntorum also "supported" his friends, Ensign and Coburn in their sex and hush-money scandal. Or at least, that's the one he got caught for.

Being R's, nobody really cares and they all got off Scott free.
It amazes me that corrupt crooks like Santorum and Gingrich have the nerve to even show their faces in public but to actually run for president?
Astounding. And, disgusting.
