I got a good laugh out of this comment on www.talkingpointsmemo.com:

"Arch-phase-out-man Santorum trying to run on record of preserving Social Security? Next to campaign as senate's prime champion of free love?"

That is funny as hell. I have no idea what Santorum said to prompt that comment, but I would find it encouraging if all those right-wingers who have always wanted abolish Social Security felt the need to act like they really like it. It would restore some faith that people in this country haven't gone completely insane, yet.
