At least someone's thinking about it according to today's Washington Post:
Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) tells voters he is intent on being the best senator he can if they give him a third six-year term in 2006. Why then, some are asking, has his campaign organization registered several Web site names that would be handy if he runs for president two years later?I am trying to decide if he will be the most homophobic Presidential candidate ever. He would sure vie for the title with Pat Buchanan, among others. I mean that whole "man on dog" thing really puts him at the front of the pack.
The domain names -- including ricksantorum2008.com, ricksantorum2008.net and santorum2008.org -- were purchased by New Media Communications of Ohio, which maintains the senator's 2006 reelection site, the Hill newspaper reported last week.
Santorum, the Senate's third-ranking GOP leader, is widely thought to be eyeing a presidential bid, although "he has never talked about it," said his spokesman, Robert L. Traynham II. "His Web firm went out" and registered the '08 sites of its own volition, Traynham said.
And this sure explains why destroying Social Security, injecting himself into the Schiavo case and forcing the nuclear option are so important to Little Ricky. His act isn't playing well in PA, but sure plays well with the radical wingnuts.
