NEW TO THE LIST
SENATOR RICK SANTORUM (R-PA)

C'mon, you knew this guy had to be coming soon, right? Well, unfortunately, there hasn't been to much from little Ricky of late. The reason I'm putting him up on the list is my general disdain for what's going on with the Senate race in Pennsylvania. With Little Ricky sinking in the polls to Democratic candidate Bob Casey Jr., the GOP has basically mobilized to assist Green Party schlub Carl Romanelli in an effort to peel some votes away from Casey. With the race apparently tightening up a bit as we get closer to election day, the strategy seems to be having an effect. Of course, this could all be moot if Romanelli doesn't qualify to appear on the ballot, a distinct possibility. The GOP knows this peril, so they obviously mobilize once again to assist here as well. Let's run down the GOP checklist for assisting Mr. Romanelli, shall we?

1. Solicit contributions for Romanelli - CHECK!
2. Pay for signature drive so that Romanelli can appear on ballot - CHECK!
3. Assist in gathering signatures - CHECK!
4. Assist Green Party volunteers in verifying these signatures - CHECK!

Paul Keil at TPM Muckraker has the full bit. Here's a clip:

To resolve Democrats' charges that most of the Greens' 100,000 signatures are invalid, a judge ordered that volunteers from both parties work side by side to establish whether they could agree on the validity of the signatures. The Department of State set up 9 computer terminals for the effort; at each station, a Democratic volunteer was to be paired with a Green volunteer. The effort is expected to take weeks.
But earlier this week, the Greens found themselves short of volunteers. So Republicans have arrived to help fill the gap. It's only natural: since GOP supporters paid for the Green signature drive, and Santorum volunteers helped collect the signatures, they have a vested interest in seeing this through to the end.

So, little Ricky, knowing that he's facing certain defeat this November given his virulent and extremist right wing rhetoric through the years decides to jimmy with the system. Let's hope that the signature drive is a crooked as it appears to be. (Thanks again, TPM-M.)

UPDATED TOP TEN:
1. Rick "Dog Sex Officianado" Santorum
2. Carl Romanelli - basically he's co-#1
3. Redstate.com - movin' on up if for no other reason than it's fun to watch them squirm as more and more signs point to big Dem gains come November.
4. Judge Anna Diggs Taylor - wow, she's really falling; maybe she could pass another ruling saying that Bushie actually has to follow the Constitution and not do whatever the hell he wants - that oughta get her back on top the list of America-haters!
5. George Felix Allen Jr. - they were talking about the "macaca" thing over on Chris Matthews last night. Huh, what I thought was a gaffe with maybe a day or two of panty-twisting has turned into a week of semi-apologies, horrendous dodges and outright stupidity by the Allen camp.
6. Tramm Hudson - I gotta check on this guy. Maybe he's gotta something to say about those "colored folks" liking fried chicken and watermelon.
7. Cheney
8. Loserman

#9 is coming this afternoon. Can you guess who it's gonna be?
