“I’ve forgotten more about Israel than Rick Perry knows about Israel,” Santorum said during a conversation with POLITICO on Tuesday, while Perry was addressing a rally of people opposed to the Palestinian statehood vote in New York. “There he is, reading a speech, that I’m sure he didn’t write, and has never taken a position on any of this stuff before, and [the media is] taking this guy seriously.”…
“Rick Perry hammers Mitt Romney for being a flip-flopper and within a couple of weeks of being in the race he’s already flipped-flopped on two issues,” Santorum said, citing Perry’s positions on Israel and the HPV vaccine. “It’s pretty amazing to see when these folks come into prime-time and have to answer for their positions how wobbly these positions become. That’s not the case with me. You’re going to see someone who’s been out there, been tested, and stood as a principled conservative in a state where it’s not easy to be a principled conservative.
