3/28/12 – More than 200 people were on hand at the Elk’s Lodge in Beaver Dam yesterday to hear Republican Presidential candidate Rick Santorum speak. The former from Pennsylvania spoke for about an hour hitting on all the main themes of his campaign, including the economy – gas prices – and family values. But he spent a lot of his speech taking shots at his main GOP foe, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, for what Santorum said was support of President Barack Obama’s health care reform bill. Santorum called on those in attendance to help him get his message out, and once again said he was the only true conservative with the ability to beat Obama. In the latest Marquette Law School poll, Santorum trails Romney 39-percent to 31-percent with less than a week before Wisconsin’s primary next Tuesday.
