who are dancing on the grave of Santorum’s presidential bid, but the bastard is pretty much a shoe in as the GOP vice presidential nominee. There may in fact already be an agreement on that in place between him and Romney.
But on the bright side, Santorum vs. Biden will be one helluva a vice presidential debate.
