If there weren't any anti-scientology campaigners spreading the word about Xenu, we'd still have a reason to have an article about Xenu. If there was no anti-Santorum campaign, we'd have no reason for the article--its entire existence depends directly on that campaign.
Yes, but there *is* such a campaign.
If there weren't a tea party movement, we wouldn't have an article on the tea party movement.
But there is. So we do.
If there weren't a neologism named after Mr. Santorum, there wouldn't be an article on it.
But there is. So we do.
