“He’s a fake.”
- Ron Paul, on Rick Santorum. During tonight’s CNN presidential debate, Paul criticized Santorum’s voting record when he was senator, adding, “I think the record is so bad.” Paul pointed to No Child Left Behind, votes to increase the national debt, and votes for foreign aid.
Paul also made a larger statement on the current Republican line-up: ”The idea that we’re fiscally conservative now that we’re running for office… we’re losing our credibility.”
When Santorum responded by comparing his record to fellow members of Congress, Paul quipped, “That’s always a cop out when you compare yourself to other members of Congress. The American people are tired of our members of Congress!”
