Subscribe to RSSRick Santorum's on the radio in Iowa with an ad hitting both Rick Perry and Mitt Romney, the Washington Post's Blake reports. The Santorum campaign is spending about $30,000 on the ad.
Script below:
"This is Rick Santorum, and if you've watched the presidential debates, you know we're not shy about disagreeing. Mitt Romney and I disagree on his government-run RomneyCare. I think Rick Perry is dead-wrong about giving , and I thought the Wall Street bailouts were a terrible idea, while Herman Cain strongly supports the bailouts, but we all agree on one thing: Barack Obama has to go, and if there's anything we've learned from his failed presidency, it's that experience matters. That's why I hope you'll visit RickSantorum.com, and learn about how I successfully led the fight to reform welfare, my critical foreign policy experience, having served eight years on the armed services committee, and how I ended partial birth abortions in America."

No Thanks! lol
A whopping 30K you say?
Might get him some air time during the 3 a.m. slot - even so, the farmers aren't up yet!
Isn't Santorum considered, by other Republicans no less, to be the dumbest person to ever serve in the US Congress?
Maybe that makes him the perfect leader for today's GOP; maybe it is a feature and not a bug.
Experience Matters? You mean this kind of experience?
Per The Blaze:
"There is a troubling part of Santorum’s record on spending, which is found in the years sandwiched between these periods of fiscal restraint. His record is plagued by the big-spending habits that Republicans adopted during the Bush years of 2001-2006. Some of those high profile votes include his support for No Child Left Behind in 2001, which greatly expanded the federal government’s role in education. He supported the massive new Medicare drug entitlement in 2003 that now costs taxpayers over $60 billion a year and has almost $16 trillion in unfunded liabilities. He voted for the 2005 highway bill that included thousands of wasteful earmarks, including the Bridge to Nowhere. In fact, in a separate vote, 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."

These "experienced" candidates got us where we are today. Santorum at the front of the line.
He funded theBridge to Nowhere because he is going there.
I haven't had this much fun since the pigs ate my brother...
AND he did it all while twirling on the head of a pin in a pink tutu!
Hi my name is Mitt, this is my brother Rick, and my other brother Rick.
Larry, Daryl and Daryl have nothing on this bunch of want to be's!
I'm almost speechless...
Santorum hitting Perry. Boy I bet that was pretty messy. I wonder if it got in his hair.
Lol. Google "Santorum".
I've writtenlots of radioads and this is oneof the dumbest so far.
It tries todo way too much; jumles it's ideas so that they are not understanable Just how are bailouts bad for Iowa? Iwould have said Iowans didn't get the bail out the Est Coast folks did..
The only point of thead is everyone disagrees.Well what else is new-we already know that from the debates!
so where's the better ideas? All he does is speak to his past and not the furture. Where an idea on jobs,for instance?
And experience matters? Bush had experience-how much did it matter when he took us over the cliff?
A wasted 30,000.
I can't decide who is more entertaining in this GOP race -- Rick or Newt. They could have a contest to see which one of them draws the smallest crowds or which one has the lowest numbers on the polls or which one makes the biggest fool out of himself.
