Casey Won't Help "Spreading Santorum"

Last week we wrote a piece about a columnist who recently discovered the website spreadingsantorum.com and was aggrieved at its content. The sex columnist who coined the term and its definition on his popular radio show, Dan Savage (Savage Love) sent Casey a contribution check. After initially agreeing to accept the $2100 the Democratic Senate hopeful returned the money afraid of what spin Santorum would put on the contribution.

I don't really see Rick Santorum making an issue out of this. The last thing he wants is more publicity about the definition of his name and reminders about the infamous AP interview which spawned the entire controversy. Maybe we need a definition for casey. Something along the lines of "no balls."
