Santorum gets little notice at some campaign stops

Cow Pie Snippets:

"..Except for a brief event in a barn, where Santorum spoke about agriculture policy surrounded by dairy cows chomping on hay and several supportive farmers, the senator drew little attention.."

"..He's a good man," the magician said after performing a rope trick for an audience of elementary school and preschool children and their parents."

".. that it was missed by all but at most the two dozen people, mostly children, in the audience.

..."Ok, this isn't funny anymore --- where the Hell is everybody?"

Between bus stops on his "New Direction Tour" in Lewistown and the Clinton County Fair in Mackeyville, Casey spent more than two hours in the midst of the Rudy farm cornfields, calling Santorum a "rubber stamp machine" for President Bush.

Casey said Santorum, rather than asking "tough questions" about effective body armor for troops and troop strength in general in Iraq, has instead questioned the press, in particular the attention the media give to the number of U.S. casualties.

"He (Santorum) was worried that the president wasn't getting good press on Iraq, that they weren't reporting the war in the right way," Casey said. "I don't really give a damn about whether or not George Bush has a good press day on Iraq. I care about supporting the troops."

BTW ----->>> SOMETHING TO CONSIDER...

One of those articles notes that EVERY poll in PA has Casey with a double-digit lead over Santorum except for ONE poll that was released by Muhlenberg College.

The media and the blogs have been focusing on that one poll.

Pretty amazing how a single poll, even though it differs significantly from all other polls is the only one that keeps making news..
