Republican Ex-GM Vice Chairman Picks Santorum Over Romney

Bob Lutz, the former vice-chairman of auto giant GM is a Republican, and he’s voting in Michigan for Rick Santorum over Mitt Romney. Lutz tells the New York Times that by writing “let Detroit go bankrupt,” Romney was playing the “same song as Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck.”

Lutz says that Romney’s opposition to rescuing Detroit was simply a “political ploy to the right.”

Despite the protest from Romney and others, President Obama engineered the plan to rescue GM. As a result, GM just released 2011 earnings of $150.3 billion and a profit of $7.6 billion.
