I am confident that she will provide our campaign with great insights, advice, and a strong network to build our national campaign infrastructure."

Karen Fesler said: "Rick Santorum is a principled conservative who is prepared to lead our nation on day-one. He has always been a champion of hardworking families and he can be trusted to shake up the old boys network. I am excited to rejoin his team and help be a part of a campaign that will again prove the experts in Washington and New York wrong."
