Yes, Rick Santorum spoke of his daughter, Bella, tonight at the Republican National Convention, as he did when he was campaigning. We understand that New York Times editorial page editor Andrew Rosenthal and the rest of the dinosaur media work on a different time table than the new media, but we didn’t know there was a statute of limitations on talking about these sorts of things.
Classy as ever. RT @andyrNYT Can't Santorum leave his daughter, Bella, alone?

Boys and girls, this is what a true swine looks like RT @andyrNYT Can't Santorum leave his daughter, Bella, alone?

In his speech, Santorum said of his daughter, “We didn’t let go and today Bella is full of life and she has made our lives and countless others much more worth living.” The message resonated with many.
When Rick Santorum speaks about Bella, it makes this expectant father say yet one more prayer to keep my baby healthy. #RNC2012

Love all the mentions of Bella Santorum. If nothing else, Santorums run provided a powerful witness to the dignity of the disabled

Here are some people who really need to leave Bella alone.
@marc_cooper just as bad as Santorum trotting out (rhetorically) his un-aborted daughter.

Santorum's daughter's full name is Bella "Political Points" Santorum. #RNC

Never actually heard Santorum use Bella as a political prop. What a whore.
