Good for him
Rick Santorum suspends 2012 bid. Excerpt:
Santorum's decision to "suspend" his campaign, rather than formally end it, allows him to continue raising money to cover campaign debt and to keep his delegates. Under Republican National Committee rules, many of Santorum's bound delegates will remain with the candidate unless they are formally released by the campaign. Santorum sent an email to supporters soliciting donations immediately following his announcement Tuesday, saying "our campaign has debt, and I cannot be free to focus on helping defeat [President Obama] with this burden." He will also likely look to Romney to help him retire his campaign debt.
" He will also likely look to Romney to help him retire his campaign debt."
ReplyDeleteI find this pretty....amazing.
Yeah, I wonder if that is somehow a misprint, and editor mistake or something. I think the main reason a campaign announces a "suspension" is that then they can still send out fundraising letters to collect money to help pay off their debt.
ReplyDeleteI don't really think Santorum is expecting any other candidate to help him pay off debts. If he is, he deserves to be laughed at. I think this is some type of misprint and/or it is the copywriter's stupidity here.
