A bit of redemption is in order after this disastrous interview. Santorum hit back at the media after his quote that “Romney is the worst person to run against Barack Obama” was turned into “Romney is the worst person to run.”
Santorum clarified that he meant Romney was the worst candidate “to run against Barack Obama on the issue of health care, because he fashioned the blueprint. I’ve been saying it in every speech. Quit distorting our words. If I see it [in print], it’s bull(expletive). C’mon man, what are you doing?”
Frankly, I’m glad to see Santorum (any candidate at this point) take a page from the Chris Christie book of Dealing With The Press. Here’s hoping that whoever the Republican nominee is will be consistent in standing up to such narratives.
