Here is also some Santorum constituate information.

I lived in Western PA during Santorum's first run, thru his loss in the Senate. I like Rick, but back when there was a discussion on public financing of the new Stadium, there was big talk of raising the Local sales tax in order to finance it.

Santorum made a big push for this new sales tax, and nobody could seem to figure out why he seemed to change his belief of taxing to prosperity. The thought was that he was in the pocket of the Elsie Hillman wing of the Republican Party. AKA the Liberal establishment Rockefeller branch.

The vote went down in flames for the new stadium sales tax, by a record turnout for the vote on it. It then went thru the back door, and was financed through the State of PA.

I firmly believe that the public never forgot it, and Santorum fell from grace and was defeated after that tax fiasco.

I truley wish somebody would ask him about it, because Rick Santorum is not as Conservative as he tends to make himself.
