OK... My mind went there "Combs supports Santorum"
http://trailblazersblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2012/03/combs-playing-off-perry-a-bit.html"Texas Comptroller Susan Combs' surprise decision over the weekend to endorse Rick Santorum in the GOP presidential sweepstakes was driven by conviction and was not a purely tactical maneuver aimed at the 2014 lieutenant governor's race, a Combs adviser said Monday."
"She see this as the most important election of our lifetime. The stakes are very high for our country and she is not going to sit on the sidelines," said Combs consultant Eric Bearse.

"Bearse said that Combs "feels like Santorum is the best conservative change agent for Washington" and "now that Texas is starting to come into play, she reached out to Sen. Santorum to offer her help and support."

"Still, Combs' choice of the late-surging Santorum puts her at odds with Perry, who backed Newt Gingrich "
Ok...I'll act my age now.
