Rick Santorum OUT!!!!

PHILADELPHIA - Sen. Rick Santorum , a strong voice for conservatives who rose to be the No. 3 Senate Republican, was routed Tuesday by Bob Casey, the anti-abortion, anti-gun control son of a popular Pennsylvania governor.

Santorum, 48, had long defied those who said he was too conservative for the Democratic-leaning state. But the two-term senator and was unable to overtake Casey, the 46-year-old state treasurer, who accused Santorum of pursuing a rigid ideology that put him out of step with most Pennsylvanians.
