Santorum is not just being victimized by Dan Savage or the news media or the
world--he's being victimized by *us*.  That makes it our job.  Just because
it's an already existing campaign doesn't mean we have no responsibility
when a search for his name brings up this article as the #3 hit (and #2 if
you only search for his last name).
