I can’t wait for the inevitable Santorum Leaks Support or Santorum Dries Up headlines.
Note: Looking the results of this week’s poll. My aren’t we a horny lot… I voted for fucking too.
@ManchuCandidate: “GOP united by newfound love for Santorum” vice “Romney takes Iowa, mops up Santorum”.
Win-win, I say.
ADD: most polls are aspirational.
Iowans ♥ Santorum.
Santorum. Relax and open up.
Santorum. He’ll still love you cum morning.
Santorum. The wet spot you can’t forget.
Santorum. At least it’s not Gingrich.
I want a “Teabaggers for Santorum” bumper sticker.
More of a squirt than a surge, really.
A Santorum bubble?
Santorum Tsunami!

I might have to make a late-entry nomination for the Stinque Nice Person Category for Dan Savage, who I believe was a contestant last year for starting the “It Gets Better” campaign, as he and his readers ensured that Santorum would never be taken seriously again thanks to the power of Teh Googlez. Maybe the “Best Use of Google of the Decade” award?
Runner up being the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Texas governor campaign cornering the “Rick Santorum gay” Google algorithm.

@karen marie has her eyes tight shut: I’m still laughing at “Santorum Surges From Behind.” Buy that editor a drink.
@Dodgerblue: Yeah, I was glad I hadn’t just put coffee in my mouth when I read that or I would have to buy my brother a new laptop.
