Gary Bauer, President of something called "American Values" ("Your voice to protect life, marriage, faith, family and freedom" - Goodness, with so much under attack, how do these poor souls sleep at night?!) will endorse fellow flag-wavin', gay-hatin' right-winger Rick Santorum for the GOP Presidential nomination. Bauer, who was born in Covington and went to Newport High School & Georgetown College, sought the nomination himself in 2000. It pretty much ended when this happened:

From the Washington Post:

In a statement prepared for release on Sunday, Bauer says that, while there are “many fine candidates” competing for the nomination, none personifies “the Reagan-inspired conservatism that unites the GOP” better than Santorum does.
Calling the 2012 election the most important in a generation, Bauer says Santorum offers a vision of a “strong, growing, confident America.” in contrast to the “deficits, big government, higher taxes and slow growth” that he said have defined the administration of President Obama.
