That includes Coos County, by the way, which he made sure everyone in the auditorium knew he could pronounce.

That he has made clear throughout his visits to 99 Iowa counties and what he said Thursday night has been all 10 counties in New Hampshire.

During that interview earlier in the day, the man questioning him told him the country needs an "economic candidate."

But he also went as far as to say that America "always needs a Jesus candidate," quoting a statement to a Boston radio interviewer during a town hall event at Windham High School.

"We need somebody who believes in something more than themseleves," said Santorum to the packed audience of over 600 people at Windham High School.

But Santorum pushed those in attendance to consider faith and family, and if they really mean it when they say "God Bless America" or if they do not.

"We don't need to focus and talk about the importance of a family," said Santorum. "I'm not saying the federal government has to do something, but a president can still do something by engaging America in a conversation."

The applauding crowd wasn't unusual for Windham, which came out strong for a

While Luther said that Cornerstone wasn't endorsing Santorum as an organization, both high profile political figures announced their personal endorsements before introducing him to the public.

Two of those clapping audience members were District 12 Sen. Jim Luther and Cornerstone Chair Shannon McGinley.

Luther acknowledged that he was one of only two state senators who hadn't endorsed a candidate officially.

Both said how they agreed with Santorum's economic outlook and his contrast to Obama.

Santorum segued into a discussion on the economy using his message of family values.

He offered those in attendance three items that have proven to keep 98 percent of people out of poverty.

"One of them is obvious: work," said Santorum. Second, graduate from high school. Third, if you're a man get married, (and) if you're a woman get married before you have a child."

While not often, Santorum did go after Barack Obama, attacking his vision for the country.

"You want to see America after the Obama administration is through," said Santorum," just read up on Greece. Read up on Portugal. Read up on France. That's what he believes we should be like. That's better. Why? Because everyone is sort of fair. Government is really controlling everything."

Santorum said that he's "clean when it comes to the contrast" on that issue.

"Not government health-care, not bailouts, not cap-and-trade," said Santorum. "Not these big things where government takes over sectors of the economy."

However Santorum took the Mitt Romney approach from Tuesday night, choosing to barely go after his fellow Republican candidates and instead stick to Obama.

The majority of the program featured a slate of prepared questions from individuals on stage. Unlike the 9-12 Project's previous Gingrich event, the stage was much less cluttered.

Those asking questions ranged from a high school student to a 66-year-old Merrimack man.

That man was Gary Gahan, who has been following the Santorum campaign around for the last 15 to 16 months, long before he gained a spike in popularity from his Iowa finish.

Gahan said before the event that he thinks Santorum can close the New Hampshire gap with his appearances over the next couple of days, but he's going to have to change his approach up a bit.

"Iowa may be a very religious serious state where New Hampshire may be not as much," said Gahan. "(He needs to focus on) how he's going to turn the economy around."

Santorum also fielded a couple of questions related to online policy, which he admitted were difficult to answer.

"I freely admit that I don't have the answer to everything but I'll give you the best shot I have," said Santorum.

A student named Issac, who also posed a question about childhood obesity to Gingrich when he was in town, offered one of those piracy questions saying he didn't like where Internet regulation was going as an "avid Youtuber."

Santorum agreed that he didn't like where the "Stop Online Piracy Act" is headed.

"I'm worried about where this act is going," said Santorum. "There are a lot of poeple that believe that everything on the Internet should be free."

Earlier in his address, he told the audience that the Internet is a "powerful source for good" and a "powerful source for bad" in this country and alluded to the fact that there should still be some regulation.

"The idea that we should be hands-off, I don't know of any other zone in America where that's the case," Santorum said.

Tom Bragg, a Santorum supporter with a large display board full of buttons supporting his candidate and bashing Obama, said he was attending his third event of the day.

While he wasn't at the Concord event earlier in the afternoon where Santorum was booed by some audience members due to his answer to a gay marriage question, he brushed off the incident.

"There was one protester but they got squashed pretty quickly," said Bragg.

Ron Paul supporters were out in full strength, staying outside of the high school until over half an hour after the event was through.

The Southern N.H. 9-12 Project, which sponsored both events, has a knack for timing. They caught Gingrich at the peak of a wave of Granite State support then, and for this event they scooped Santorum coming off the high of a strong performance in the Iowa caucus.

A few of the randomly selected audience members asking questions even congratulated the former Pennsylvania governor on his performance, telling him that it was the reason that brought them to the auditorium.

It was a far cry from the energy of last week, when the Santorum campaign announced it would suspend its operations with a poor Hawkeye State finish. That would have cancelled the Windham event and all of his other 30-plus appearances this week in New Hampshire.
