He is right; running a moderate certainly didn't work in 2008 when conservatives got their butts handed to them by Obama.
Freedom's Lighthouse - Here is video of Sen. Rick Santorum addressing the “Americans for Prosperity” gathering in Milwaukee, where he invoked Ronald Reagan’s 1976 Presidential Campaign as a comparison to his own attempt to defeat Mitt Romney. Santorum pointed out he has now tied Reagan with 11 primary/caucus victories as a conservative candidate trying to defeat a moderate establishment candidate. Reagan lost the nomination to then-President Gerald Ford in 1976, who went on to lose a close election to Jimmy Carter. Carter’s election led to a disastrous four years for the United States economically and militarily.
