Rick Santorum is claiming that Obama is acting like a ‘sore winner.’ Santorum needs to remember that the president is acting like a winner because he won.

STEPHANOPOULOS: And, you know, Rick Santorum, House Republicans certainly seem to feel some of the pressure on those issues this week. They announced at the end of the week that they’re not going to hold up this debt limit, seek a three-month extension on the debt limit to give some breathing space for negotiations. You know, you heard David Plouffe right there say that is a cave by House Republicans.

SANTORUM: I mean, listen to that language. I mean, Republicans extend an olive branch. “Ah, they’re caving. Ah, we got them.” That’s not how a leader acts. Governor didn’t get things done in Michigan because every time she won she rubbed it in their nose. That’s the problem with this administration. They don’t — they’re not very gracious winners.

And I always said, you know, there’s one thing worse than a sore loser, and that’s a sore winner. And the president’s a sore winner.

 

SANTORUM: … Republicans understand that. And this president could get immigration done. He could get something done on deficits and entitlements, but he’s got to move his people to do that, instead of forcing Republicans always to come his way. And that’s the problem.
