Record as mixed while the american conservative union gave santorum a lower conservative rating than gingrich or ron paul based on their voting record. so in truth, is romney s attack on santorum not only accurate but fair? well, i don t want to be in the position to be apologist for rick santorum, but i m given the fact he was representing a very center left. i m sure his fiscal record.. gregg: are you saying he had to pander moderates and liberals in a industrial state? yeah. if you look at national taxpayer union, i believe they actually graded him pretty fairly. when you take that context, when you take that into an context.
