Troy Mayor to Santorum: 'If I Had a Key to the City, I Would Give One to You'
Mayor Janice Daniels backs Republican presidential candidate nominee Rick Santorum at a rally Friday in Shelby Township.
All eyes – including those of Troy Mayor Janice Daniels – were on Shelby Township Friday as the Republican presidential nominee candidate Rick Santorum addressed a full house at Palazzo Grande just after 11 a.m.
Santorum was the keynote speaker at the Michigan Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Victory Rally '12” forum on Friday.
During the rally, which drew a crowd of around 1,500 people, Daniels threw her support behind Santorum, telling him: "If I had a key to the city, I would give one to you, but the city budget is lower this year."

"Daniels also asked about Santorum's 3-year-old daughter, who suffers from a chromosomal condition called Trisomy 18," the Detroit News reports. "The little girl recently had a bout with pneumonia and Santorum said she's recovering well."
