Let us not forget that it wasn’t just a group of evangelical white people who contributed to his power (prestige?) in Iowa and beyond. One of his highest profile staffers is semi-openly gay Robert Traynham. Mike Rogers exposed his hypocrisy many years ago. Traynham’s reward for helping push an uber-conservative agenda? A nice cushy pundit role in DC.

If you follow some of the links, you’ll note he scrubbed his resume of the name Santorum, but that might be to legitimize himself as an unbiased conservative? Nonetheless, he and his partner (an exec with Citi) live a lifestyle of privilege and access while the rest of suffer in part due to him. Very sad.
