Building on his rising poll numbers in Iowa, where he’s in a close third place, Rick Santorum has earned the support of five New Hampshire legislators. The campaign sent the following statement from Santorum in a press release:
As the momentum of our campaign continues to build, I am excited to welcome the support of this esteemed group of New Hampshire leaders. Each of these leaders understand that America is more than just a plot of land, but a moral enterprise that revolutionized the world and must be maintained. As President, I am committed to doing just that, and working to build a better tomorrow for our children and grandchildren. I look forward to building on our momentum from Iowa to again defy expectations in New Hampshire.
