I once met Rick Santorum. He was a very nice fellow, supremely articulate and had the most perfect handshake. It was like he practiced. We spoke about football, and I introduced him to a few assistant coaches and prospective recruits during a big recruiting weekend for the football team.
Being from Pennsylvania, i actually had a pretty positive impression of Mr. Santorum. But when i think of Rick, I will always think of his painful SEO nightmare he’s somehow navigated around (have fun with that, campaign reps), and this picture:
It’s a treasure trove, really. Every time i look, it gets better. It’s like when a pastor reads the same verse over and over again, and smehow, God finds a new way to articulate something in the repetition.
Seriously, Rick looks like Gob Bluth in this shot. Looks like a scene straight from Arrested Development. And yes, his handshake really is that solid.
