In case anyone was on the fence about Rick, this may push them to his side. Very important issue discussed here. Sweater vests.

Before the posts roll in nailing me for not putting this in "Breaking News", it was purely an oversight on my part. I apologize in advance. I realize how important this topic is.

Rick Santorum wears sweater vests?

I thought he just had really long arms...

[hinckley buzzard]

Sweater vests? Must be going for the Jim Tressel look. Worked out great for him...

Well you know, the cardigan collective and the granny professional knitters association have enough votes to swing an election. And don't even get me started on the alpaca alumni.

Worked out great for the Gators, yesterday.

LOL.

I didn’t know this was an issue. My family must be mortified in the winter going out with me. I wear them all the time.

The preppy version of boxers or briefs????

[JoeDetweiler]

I have to admit that, being a “real” conservative, I prefer the button-ups to the pullovers.

[stars & stripes forever]

He needs a bow-tie to complete the “look.”

[Reagan69]

He sure does look goofy.

[Salamander]

Just as long as they’re not “Magic Sweater vests”....

[MinuteGal]

Oh, my.....he DOES look like the leader of the Free World, correctamundo?

That was a fantastic interview. Laura really likes Rick Perry. I think she will endorse him. Anyway, the sweater vest story is so innovative. He was not getting any attention before the sweater vest and now he is on his way to being President of the United Sates in January 2013. Rick Santorum is incredible!!!!! I think we might just be ok. God is looking out for us. Thank You God for Rick Santorum and your guidance of this primary season and his wonderful family and faithful marriage. I could not be more thrilled. And they are practicing Catholics which is a bonus.

Mr. Rogers’s of the RNC. Carter liked them too. Just saying.

[rllngrk33]

Cause he likes to stay warm?

Not really. Carter wore cardigans like Mr Rogers. Sweater vests are a whole different animal.

I'll take Santorums sweater vests he wears because it is cold any day over those stupid plaid shirts Lamar Alexander intentionally wore during his run. He looked like a stooge.
