New Santorum theme song (not kidding)

The Harris family, with their 8 (count 'em, eight) homeschooled children, have a 21st century version of a promise ring band that crosses the contageous charisma of the Partridge Family with the white milk purity of The Cowsills they call "First Love". This octet of inherent cuteness from Tulsa became inspired by a Rick Santorum visit recently and wrote what they hope will be the official theme song for the campaign. Maybe they can change the words and still use it next month when he packs up the clan and heads back to Pennsylvania.

I'll admit there's loads of talent here, and it's refreshing that for once a Republican isn't ripping off a popular song with the artist issuing a cease & desist order, but the illusion the video offers, that young people everywhere are jumping up & down with viral enthusiasm for Rick Santorum, is starkly deceitful to say the least:

This overly sugar sweetened squeaky clean family leaves my teeth aching.

If there is anything I can't imagine seeing at Santorum rallys, it's young people jumping up and down in Support of Rick Santorum

refusing to let the Rs play their stuff, it's good some fresh young faces step up.

Eric Cartman might want to take a shot.

"Are these girls using birth control or are they masturbating to get those smiles? Me thinks they are getting poked with something"

Smarmy and sexist....Maybe it's it's you "getting poked with something".

I now see someone else went through the trouble to cut & paste the text from an article one day ago.
My original commentary is indeed now ancient news, but I hope it's still as new to some here as it was to me.

I checked to see if it was up today first, but perhaps should have looked back further. Thanks for the heads up.

Santorum is still the equivalent of raw sewage in my book.

It is also funny how they convienently left out the two Bushes. Yes indeed there is always trickle down on the "Special" Bus.
