After getting about 1% in Iowa, Rick Santorum is calling it quits.
24 Comments on Santorum Out
Well, bye.
Didn’t know he was still in.
Seriously.
Jos. Bank just put sweater vests on sale.
Will this be the last time he runs for President?
Is there some sort of filing deadline where candidates get some financial benefit if they wait until after the first primary to quit? Seriously, he wasn’t doing any better before this. it was just as inevitable last week as it is this morning. Why did he wait this long?
Bigger question. Why is Bush still in? Could it be that his advisers are advising him to stay in for as long as he has money to pay his advisers?
Who is remaining?
Will be nice to have debates with fewer combatants, with the actual contenders.
But don’t forget this was the guy who once won the vaunted, super duper, indispensable Iowa Caucus the political end all be all! Better even than winning the Presidential nomination! Hip Hip Hooray!
Bet Trumpeter won’t get his followers…
Santorum has already assembled his 2020 Presidential Run Exploratory Team.
What do you bet they find he should run?
Nah, Cruz already bought and paid for them!
The look on his face says it all! “What happened? I once won the Iowa caucus and thus had to have been within a whisker of winning the Presidency”?
Cruz reigns supreme. He left Iowa with his ditty bag full of eight delegates and 10 Santorum supporters. His cup runneth over!
A couple of great tweets I found concerning this news:
“Santorum’s family just found he’s dropping out of the race. They also just found out he was in the race”
“It’s been a real treat watching the Santorum kids grow up through his failed presidential runs.”
Good riddance to bad rubbish as Ms Bette Davis said. Payback’s a bitch.
His place in History is assured! He won an Iowa Caucus! Why would he ruin his legacy by running for President again?
Santorum says a lot of good things.
Shame he looks like the manager of the High School basketball team.
Good memories. Four years from now when Senator Ted Cruz throws his hat in the Presidential ring we will all swoon remembering that he once won the critical Iowa Caucus!
LOL
A little O/T, but it’s so lame when a newscaster/talking head introduces someone like Santorum as a “former presidential candidate.” Well, duh. Any one of us could throw our hat in the ring. How about “perennial presidential candidate Pat Paulsen”?
I actually like Santorum a lot. However, the Democrats are so scary this year that I just couldn’t support anyone who couldn’t win in November. Thus, Cruz be da man.
THE A§$H*LE BACKS RUBIO. WTF?!?
LESSON LEARNED: NEVER trust a “Jesus Carny in the realm of politics.

Bush, Carson, Christie, Cruz, Fiorina, Gilmore, Kaisch, Paul, Rubio, Trump.
Spank you very much.
