Rick "Babyface" Santorum considering 2012 presidential run
You thought Sarah used her kids as props, just wait til Ricky trots out his dead fetus collection

-----

Politico:

Santorum may challenge 'injurious' Obama
Rick Santorum affirmed on an RNC conference call -- aimed at attacking Arlen Specter -- that he's considering a run for president in 2012 -- because, he said, the Obama presidency is "injurious to America."

"The dynamic has changed," Santorum said. "A lot of folks who might not have thought about running against an incumbent president" are now considering it.

He cited Obama's lower poll numbers and his failure to "transform" and unify the country.

"A lot of people are going to take a look and see wht they can do to try to confront this presidency, which many of us -- as you're seeing from the tea parties and the like -- which many of us believe is injurious to America," Santorum said, saying the 2012 race is "something that I think I would consider."

1. That's great news. Encourage all the GOP you know to send him lots of money!
Then, when he flames out in the primary, and he will, it'll be money wasted.

3. I hope that he does. I really hope that he does!
The other rumor is that he might consider running for Governor of PA. when Rendell's term is up. I don't think that he'd win, but I don't even want there to be a chance of that happening. We were so relieved that we ran him out of here once that I didn't think that he'd ever come back here.

5. I'd like to know why they intentionally left their dead fetus out of their family photo.

7. I wonder, are the Santorum girls crying because
they are upset that Dad lost or because they are relieved that they no longer have to pretend they live in Pennsylvania?

Wow, the older girl looks exactly like her father.

9. Come to think of it, I would.
Maybe younger daughter can't bear to open her eyes because the "doll" she is holding is actually from the dead fetus collection.
