What is Rick Santorum?

Santorum is not a Catholic, but a papist.

--Gary Wills

And note that most Catholics voting in the Republican primary are post-Vatican II Catholics like Wills; Santorum has yet to win the Catholic vote in a single state. As the recent blow-up over contraception shows, the divergence between American Catholics and the leadership in Rome is huge and getting wider all the time.
