FILE - In this July 18, 2015, file photo, Republican presidential candidate, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, speaks at the Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa. As next month’s first GOP 2016 presidential debate looms, prospects are doing everything they can to improve their polling and chin themselves into a top 10 position to meet the criteria set by Fox News Channel to appear on stage Aug. 6 in Cleveland. Rick Perry is waging a one-man war on Donald Trump’s credibility, calling the bombastic billionaire “a cancer on conservatism.” Santorum, a conservative icon, popped up on a favorite program of liberals, the Rachel Maddow Show. And South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham set his phone on fire.(AP Photo/Nati Harnik, File) (AP)
