Desperate Little Ricky and the GOP try to steal the election

Man-on-dog Santorum's trailing in the polls, so now he's trying to shave votes from Casey by aiding the Green Party candidate. Yet another incumbent who feels entitled to his office -- and he admits it.

Green Party candidate Carl Romanelli, making his first bid for statewide elective office, acknowledged Monday that Republican contributors probably supplied most of the $100,000 that he said he spent gathering signatures to qualify for the Nov. 7 ballot.

...Santorum said he hopes Romanelli makes it onto the ballot. "This is politics," the second-term senator told reporters Monday while campaigning in suburban Pittsburgh. "It's no surprise when you're an incumbent, it helps to have more people on the ballot."

...Virginia Davis, Santorum's campaign spokeswoman, declined to answer questions about whether he solicited the contributions.

Well, I guess Ricky knows he can't win on, say, the issues.
