DURHAM, N.H. (AP) — John Kasich is betting big on positivity.
Unlike Jeb Bush and Chris Christie, who are turning their fire on Marco Rubio with a renewed sense of urgency, Kasich is refusing to go negative against his rivals, even bragging about how he asked the super PAC backing him not to run an ad hitting the Florida senator. Instead, a calm Kasich is pinning his White House hopes on the idea that voters want a candidate who says what he or she is for, not what others are against.
WASHINGTON — Rick Santorum, the former Pennsylvania senator, ended his bid for the White House Wednesday and threw his support to Republican rival Marco Rubio.
"When it comes to the issues that we care about the most – restoring the American dream for hardworking families, standing up for the rights of the unborn, protecting our nation's security, and fighting for international religious freedom – we believe Marco Rubio's position are right on, and he has earned our endorsement," Santorum said in a message sent to supporters Wednesday night.
