Romney hires Santorum’s campaign manager

Posted by Philip Rucker at 06:57 PM ET, 04/26/2012

Michael Biundo, who managed Rick Santorum’s presidential campaign, is now joining the campaign of Santorum’s former rival Mitt Romney in a key post organizing conservative voters.

The Romney campaign has hired Biundo, a longtime grassroots campaign organizer, as deputy national director of coalitions with a mandate to help unite tea party activists, evangelicals and other conservatives behind the presumptive Republican nominee.

“Mike Biundo ran an outstanding campaign for Senator Santorum, and we are excited that he has agreed to bring his considerable skills and abilities to our team,” Romney spokesman Ryan Williams said. “His decision to join Governor Romney’s campaign is another indication that Republicans are coalescing around Governor Romney’s pro-jobs, pro-growth message and quickly uniting to defeat President Obama.”

rather than shoot his mouth off about contraception, pornography, etc. this guy might have helped Santorum beat Mittens. Romney's gotta admire that about him.
