Dog Pee Can't Stop Santorum (Video)

Rachel Maddow addressed likely Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum's name recognition problem. He's been out giving his stump speeches, but if the folks in middle America want to know more and Google him, they come up with Dan Savage's site SpreadingSantorum.com, which defines the word "Santorum" as a frothy mix of fecal matter and lube. Savage created the site in 2003 after Santorum compared gay relationships to beastiality.

Santorum just keeps making things worse for himself. At a recent pre-campaign stop (he's expected to announce his candidacy on June 6), he related a story from years ago about how a dog peed on his lap in the home of a potential supporter, but he didn't let it stop him from pressing on with his door to door canvassing. This bit of news has become a headline that will certainly help change Santorum's public image, or at least make it more fun for the rest of us.

Maddow discusses Mr. Frothy's attempt to redefine himself.
