Santorum: C. In the past I have found him impressive. But he came across as a defensive and arrogant bully. I also wonder about the judgment of a politician who insists that we did find WMD in Iraq. Then, after Tim Russert challenged that assertion, Santorum fell back on the cop-out answer that we found some of Saddam's old chemical shells from the 80s.Finally, although I've stopped grading the hosts, I think Tim Russert deserves mention for an excellent job of moderating the Santorum-Casey debate. Russert made it a heckuva lot more interesting than the genteel (and often dull presidential debates) that take place every four years. Russert had no reservations about interrupting nonsense responses with additional facts that forced both of his guests onto the defensive. And, yes, he was equally tough on both sides.

Err, aren't we over 500 chemical weapons now, plus a few hundred empty rockets and shells designed to carry chemicals, plus the odd centrifuge buried in a scientist's back yard?
