Rick Santorum, fresh off victories in three states, will use a speech to Republican activists to attempt to solidify his position as the prime alternative to Mitt Romney in the Republican presidential race.
Santorum, Romney and rival Newt Gingrich will each make their case today in Washington at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, a group whose gatherings attract Republicans motivated by cutting taxes and ending abortion rights. This bloc has resisted Romney’s candidacy, questioning his commitment to their causes.
