    At first, one was the loneliest number for Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum on Monday.

    Just one Iowan showed up at 2 p.m. campaign stop Monday at a restaurant in the unincorporated community of Hamlin, population 300, according to a report from The Des Moines Register — Peggy Toft, an insurance agent who chairs the county’s Republican Party.

    “We didn’t have a lot of notice that he was going to be there,” Toft said in a telephone interview with POLITICO, explaining the low turnout.

    But even she would not endorse Santorum outright.

    The Audubon County Republican chair said that she is “leaning” toward supporting Santorum but has not yet made a decision about whom she would support in the caucus.

    “The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner

    That's kinda cool. Having a one-on-one lunch with a pres candidate would be fun.

    It would be really cool to be the one voter, the media cares about your impression of the candidate when you are the only guy.

    Think of all the things you would ask Rick...

    I would filet his worldview right in front of his eyes and leave him crying.

    LOL, this sure is funny. Why is he bothering to run? Although I could ask that about most of the ones running (or soon to be).

    lol!!!

    “We can’t sit idly by as big government politicians make it harder for our workers,” said Santorum. “The growing lack of confidence in government has created a gap in the fabric of faith, a widening void, and a glory hole that can only be filled by two-fisted, blue-collar conservatism. I’m willing to put myself out there and face that glory hole head on,”

    "Each of us must choose which course of action we should take: education, conventional political action, or even peaceful civil disobedience to bring about necessary changes. But let it not be said that we did nothing." - Ron Paul

    "Paul said "the wave of the future" is a coalition of anti-authoritarian progressive Democrats and libertarian Republicans in Congress opposed to domestic surveillance, opposed to starting new wars and in favor of ending the so-called War on Drugs."

    There have been a number of times where somewhat more believable headlines from National Report have been passed around seriously.
