Following a bitter debate in Phoenix Wednesday night, former Senator Rick Santorum suggested Ron Paul and Mitt Romney repeatedly attacked him because they've cut a deal, perhaps giving Paul the vice-presidential slot in the Romney campaign.
"You have to ask Congressman Paul and Governor Romney what they've got going together," Santorum told reporters in the spin room in Mesa, Arizona, according to
The Daily Mail. "Their commercials look a lot alike and so do their attacks."
Santorum's top strategist John Brabender suggested the two men were "joining forces."
"Clearly there's a tag team strategy between Ron Paul and Mitt Romney. For all I know, Mitt Romney might be considering Ron Paul as his running mate. Clearly there is now an alliance between those two and you saw that certainly in the debate."
