Santorum on The Daily Show

Posted by on July 12 at 23:45 PM

Not so much the Senator, but the goo.

In a segment on Senator Frothy’s recent “50 Things You May Not Know About Rick Santorum” campaign brochure, The Daily Show insterted a few of their own, including:

(F) If you Google Rick’s last name, you might learn a fun new word for a substance you may not even know existed.

No mention of the original source of this new definition, alas.

First a pegging video, now a mention on The Daily Show...Is Dan going big time?

Many in the studio audience seemed to know about this already...As the item flashed on the screen and Jon was reading it, a good number of knowing hoots and hollers could be heard. Though I guess it's not surprising that people hip enough to actually be in the Daily Show studio would get the joke.

Actually, I don't think it's so sad they didn't mention Savage's efforts to originate the term - it means it's taken on a life of its own, which was Savage's intention. I think it's great.

Personally, I'd really love to see Google's stats for how many times "santorum" was googled immediately before and then immediately following TDS...I'll bet there was a helluva spike.

May it stick forever to the Fascist Easter Egg himself.

I was trying to think of a word for Bush, but all I come up with is incompetent robot.
