Santorum Suspension

Tuesday April 10th, Rick Santorum came out and announced that the road to the Presidency was over and that he was suspending his campaign. Honestly, I cried. (Not really.) The very fact that it took so long for Rick Santorum to step down blew my mind and now I am waiting for Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul to come out and announce the very same thing. 

In the next few days I expect Santorum's campaign managers and leaks to be a plenty as we anticipate the several reasons that Santorum has decided to suspend his campaign. If we read a few of my posts before we'll see there's several reasons Santorum should have stepped down and ended his bid for the Presidency a long time back, but unfortunately he hadn't, until now. 

With Santorum stepping down conveniently before he lost the primary in his home state, it does raise the question, will Santorum come out and endorse Romney now and if so will it truly mean anything? There's been so much bad blood between Santorum and Romney that it does raise the question, will Santorum ever be a voice in the Republican party again? And better yet, had Santorum even been a voice in the Republican party?

I don't believe Santorum will be a voice in the party, and I don't believe he's even on the VP short list, or even the longer version of the list. The only way Santorum may be considered for a position in the Romney administration will be if the RNC really pushes for it in hopes of clearing the air and putting some band-aid's on most of Santorum's wounds. I do believe an endorsement of Romney by either of the candidates will be genuine for he is a true candidate of change, he is a true leader, it is up to them to really step forward and energize their base for Romney and help make the case why Romney is the man that will reinvigorate this economy and will bring us back to the top where we should be.
