Rick Santorum CPAC Speech: Former Senator Hits 'The Left'

Santorum Talks At CPAC

Former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) addressed the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, taking a hit at "the left" in the process.

"Face it -- the left can always promise more stuff," Santorum said.

But Santorum's speech wasn't all attacks. Santorum, who competed against Mitt Romney in the 2012 Republican presidential primary, revealed that his nephew passed away on Thursday, using the story to reflect on suffering and government's role, HuffPost's Amanda Terkel reports.
