OK, technically one question and a quick follow-up. GQ’s Death Race 2012 correspondent Marin Cogan checked in with the man who redefined the word “Santorum”:
GQ: What do you make of Santorum’s last minute surge in Iowa?
He was and remains a vanity candidate—he’s running for four more years as a Fox News talking head. He’s this year’s Huckabee, and Roger will reward Rick like he rewarded Mike: with a talk show to call his own. And a deal to write a steady stream of books about how Obama turned the greatest country in the whole history of the whole world into a stinking socialist shithole. But Rick is going to do fine in Obama’s socialist shithole. He’s going to rake it in. He’s not going to do any actual governing, however, and thank God, but he’ll never have to work again.
GQ: Between Santorum and Perry, are you ready to redefine the name Rick?
Savage: Already redefined Rick: it means to remove with your tongue. So “Rick Santorum” is actually a sentence now, not a name.
