Related: About this forumOnly One Person Showed Up to a Rick Santorum Rally
http://www.ringoffireradio.com/2015/06/only-one-person-showed-up-to-a-rick-santorum-rally/At a recent campaign event, Rick Santorum managed to keep his chin up despite only one voter turning out to his event. Seeing the small turnout, Santorum decided to take the opportunity to eat lunch.
I havent eaten, actually, all day, Santorum said, reported the Des Moines Register.
As his food arrived, about three more people showed up.
Those in attendance were the local Republican Party Chair Peggy Toft and Pastor Glen Meyers. Santorum decided to discuss gay marriage with them.

Does that include the people who DELIVERED the food?

There are plenty of other nut cases who are. Just because the Kochs' billion won't be spent on Santorum, that doesn't mean it won't be spent, and in all likelihood, it will be spent on someone a lot meaner and far more dangerous, (e.g. Scott Walker).
