I was an early supporter of Rick Santorum. I made my first contributions in June of 2011, starting on June 8th of that month. There were so few of us back then that my meager contributions probably made a difference. I claim personal responsibility for his very narrow victory in Iowa :-). On January 26th of this year, I fulfilled the requirement (a $100 contribution) to get a Rick Santorum sweater vest. I later heard of others getting theirs, but I never received mine. I simply assumed that, in the tumult of a political campaign and campaign debts, that I wouldn't get one. Lo and behold, this past Friday I got mine in the mail, nine months to the day after I received a receipt for the contribution. (I had received a notice two days earlier that it was on the way.) Hoping to get my buggy whips, 8-track tapes, and manual typewriter ribbons soon.
I sent in $100 and all I got were emails.
Did you really need a wool vest before cool weather?
Keep it in the plastic wrapper. The vest may be a real collector item in 100 years.
In all seriousness I imagine that the boutique manufacturer’s are just now filling seasonal special orders. Either that or they just got paid.
To be safe, however, check the pits for B-O.
It’s for 2016!
I notice it is made in the USA too.
Nice.
I like attention to detail like that.,
Seconded.
Not quite as collectable as a Mike Huckabee bass guitar or a Bob Dole ballpoint pen.
Nice, if I had one I would wear it over my Lamar! red-and-black plaid shirt.
I’ll give you five bucks for it. :)
First thing I noticed as well.
Interesting. I made a donation to the RR campaign and bought a R lapel pin and magnet bumper decal over two weeks ago, still hasn’t come.
I donated $100 to Herman Cain’s campaign, with the promise of the signed book. They were unable to deliver the book, and he had since withdrawn from the race. They offered to send back my money, and I accepted.
Me too. I ordered 3 T-shirts and 2 lapel buttons 3 different times. The first one was before Paul Ryan was chosen for VP. Another was when PR was chosen VP. Another later again.
I bitched and got my third order this week! One T & 2 lapel buttons and about $200.00 later. I have given up hope that the other two T shirts will show up - ever.
Am I impressed? No.
