Rick Santorum back in the race after sweeping wins over Mitt Romney
Normally I'd be terrified at the mere concept of enough muppets managing to coordinate their gesticulation of a pen and writing what normally constitutes their name next to "Rick Santorum" to result in even one victory for him, but on hearing this news the portion of me reserved for utterly gleeful facetiousness immediately grabbed a beer and kicked back, ready to watch the Republicans eat themselves. I don't think there's anything in the bible against self-cannibalism, so they're fine to proceed.
Rick Santorum has now won more states than previous assure-o-candidate Mitt Romney which shakes things up considerably and fragments the Republican party further, although it is worth bearing in mind that he's won exactly the kind of states whose preferred candidate would be a homophobe on steroids. Santorum himself isn't heinous and objectionable, it's just everything he says, the things he believes and the principles that he works to that make every right-thinking person want to forcefully expunge semi-digested foodstuffs out of their mouths.
Don't get me wrong here; I'm no flag-waving Obama supporter but we know what he does and while not all of it has been great, the place I live and the places that all of my friends live continue to exist and I quite like it that way. The smarmy untrustworthiness on the faces of every nearly every GOP candidate gives me no such similar assurance.
