What is Rick Santorum going to do?
I think by now he should have resigned himself to the fact he is not going back to the Senate. He is still popular in the Bush administration. I am sure he is looking hard for another job. My theory is that Bush is going to have to let Rumsfeld go & this will open the door for Rick to come in. The other theory I have is that Condi may go & Rick will take her position. Any one have any thoughts on this? This will be very important for the country as a whole because if their is one person I think that will be worse for the job than Condi & Rumsfeld it will be Rick.

2. Serious question
Is Rick Santorum actually qualified to do any job that has qualifications?

I think the Bush admin won't remember Santorum the day after he is gone. He was useful when he could get elected, if he loses then he won't have that use.

8. When he loses this election and realizes nobody actually
likes him and he has been (gasp!) rejected, he'll probably shit himself to death.

44. Didn't he run the K Street Project?
A guy like that will never be unemployed for long.

Unless he was caught with a gay hooker and some meth.

Even then....

16. I'm sure there is a teaching position
for him at Patrick Henry College which is a training camp for right wing politicians and pundits. It's just minutes down the road from Santorum's million dollar McMansion in Northern Virginia.

21. He Can Comfort Himself With Peggy Noonan's Latest Drivel


In her current column, Noonan whines that Santorum is the kind of politico that's really needed in the Senate. More shamefully, she claims that "Bobby Kennedy would have loved him."

Tracking Noonan's descent into drooling insanity isn't as much fun as watching Katherine Harris come unwound, but it has its rewards.

Oh, and Rick? Adios, MoFo......

28. Seriously. I was thinking "Fox News Political Analyst".
Probably a Sunday morning talking head regular--lord, it'll make my morning cup of java hard to swallow looking at his smarmy kisser on the tube, but I'm already envisioning it.

29. After suffering the abject rejection of defeat he will implode.
Edited on Sun Nov-05-06 12:32 AM by Doremus
One nervous breakdown and 23 electro-shock sessions later, his wife will divorce his ass after he reveals his former secret life as Jeff Gannon's blow-up doll. Realizing she was merely a baby-popping accessory in his masquerade as a God-fearing pillar of society, she will sue for the *good* house and take off with his former chief of staff, leaving him with the PA shack and 5 hungry kids to feed and educate ... all on his meager street-sweeper's salary.

Bwaahahahaha

Actually and sadly, I fully expect him to earn more as a lobbyist than he ever pulled down as Senator. I hate these fvcked up endings.

as a lobbyist. He needs money to put his kids through college.

38. He doesn't have to do anything.
Doesn't he get a lifetime pension for his "service" in the Congress? With healthcare benefits of course.

He'll make the rounds on television under the ruse of "balance".

But his primary source of income won't change: Richard Mellon Scaife

After than performance he gave in that "rasslin" commercial where he claimed to be endorsed by Hillary I'd think Vince McMahon would love to get Santorum in the ring.

49. I know what he WON'T be doing...
joining the military and heading over to Iraq.

He should see if he can man the fry station at Arby's. He should be able to pull that off successfully.
