Rick Santorum is clarifying controversial comments about Obama once again.

I mean, yeah, maybe he's not the best guy after a while, after a while you find out some things about this guy over in Europe who's not so good of a guy after all...'"

Santorum defended his comments Monday when asked whether he was comparing the president to Hitler.
