Santorum gains evangelical backing in South Carolina drive
About 150 social conservatives gathered in Texas to unify behind Rick Santorum as the best chance to stop Mitt Romney. The group chose Santorum over Perry and Gingrich, with Tony Perkins citing about 75 percent in support, while Gary Bauer noted some Romney sympathy and anticipated further endorsements from Focus on the Family. The move comes ahead of the January 21 South Carolina primary where social conservatives hold sway.
