Who knew Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine was a fan of Rick Santorum?

The former Jehovah's Witness is a devout born-again Christian, currently on the latest version of his Gigantour.

The rocker has issued the following statement to clarify reports that he has endorsed Rick Santorum for president:

“Contrary to how some people have interpreted my words, I have not endorsed any presidential candidate.  What I did say was that I hope to see a Republican in the White House.  I’ve seen good qualities in all the candidates but by no means have made my choice yet.  I respect the fact that Santorum took time off from his campaign to be with his sick daughter, but I never used the word ‘endorse.’”
