Rick Santorum to launch June 6
Rick Santorum to launch June 6

Rick Santorum will formally launch his presidential campaign on June 6 in Pennsylvania, POLITICO has learned.

Continue Reading

The announcement will be a return-to-your-roots moment, taking place near the western Pennsylvania coal mines where his grandfather worked, according to Santorum sources.

"This location is significant because when Senator Santorum's grandfather left fascist Italy, he was attracted to America's freedom, and the opportunity our nation offered him," one person close to the Santorum campaign explained.

After the announcement, the former Pennsylvania senator will head to Iowa, and later, to New Hampshire.

23. Yeah - and they wouldn't blast him because there wouldn't be any intelligent life they could detect.
There MIGHT just be some frothy mix...

25. I guess that answers the question:
"Will Santorum Run?"

Apparently, Santorum can be found running all over Iowa. Call the hazmat team!

8. What is his money source?
Somebody/thing/entity has to be funding him just to present a launch.

17. I think the campaign should avoid using "Santorum" and "fascist" in the same sentence.
It would be simply dreadful if someone created a google-bomb linking Santorum's name to anything distasteful.

20. Oh good. I look forward to the daily Santorum updates.
I'm not really. The man can't open his mouth without saying something outrageous or stupid, usually both. And it always makes my blood boil. I think Santorum is literally harmful to my health.
