Santorum releases an ad where he is splattered with a frothy, brown sludge

Words fail me...

by Jon Bershad | 4:16 pm, February 15th, 2012 | mediaite.com

This has to be on purpose, right? There’s no way that Rick Santorum’s campaign would release an official ad in which his picture is splattered with chunky brown liquid without knowing what it looked like. They totally did this on purpose. Right? Right?!

Revolting, brown viscous substance being spewed around in exactly the same pattern as on "spreading santorum.com".

Hasn't this very same man complained about his google problem? Is he THAT tone deaf?

Whoever came up with this had to be a DNC mole. I can think of no other explanation. Oh well- I guess I can't rule out cognitive dissonance...

nominee. Just seemed as not being politically correct given all the assassinations we've had in this country.

It just shows a guy who looks like Romney splattering Santorum's picture with brown stuff. It doesn't contest any particular mud-slinging by Romney on any particular point, nor does it advance any policy or idea of Santorum's. It's almost as weird as Herman Cain's bizarre ads were. Maybe Santorum just likes bathing in Santorum for the heck of it and relishes the fact he's such a popular Google celebrity. Becoming number one on Google is his greatest achievement in life after all.
