Santorum Takes Campaign To Home State

by David Welna, NPR

In the race for the Republican presidential nomination, there's a temporary lull in the voting. On April 24, voters go to the polls in five states, including Pennsylvania, former Senator Rick Santorum's home state. The last time Santorum faced the voters in Pennsylvania he suffered a crushing, 18 point loss. With former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney consolidating his front-runner status, Santorum risks another loss in the Keystone State by staying in the race.
