Brit Hume was on with Bill O’Reilly tonight to discuss the Republican primary. Hume agreed with Bill that the media would be all over Santorum in a general election.
“You’re absolutely right Bill and that’s why I think Santorum would be a risky nominee. I’ve read his positions on contraception and prenatal testing and so forth and it’s a respectable case he makes on those things. But those are not the major issues this election year. And while I think in the context of a republican primary those issues may not hurt him too badly… But those issues would be general election poison.”
