Santorum starts the "swift boating" of Bob Casey

Here in Pennsylvania, Rick ("Man on Dog") Santorum has begun his desperate attempt to defend his senate seat against Bob Casey, his Democratic challenger in this year's election.

Basically, Santorum is inventing allegations that Casey campaign folks are spying on him -- at a home where he does not actually spend any time. [Read story.]

The really scary part is that this sort of thing works. The sheep will go to the polls in November remembering that Casey trespassed on Santorum's property (whether true or not).

Unfortunately, the credible denials don't stick as well in the public's mind.

Karl Rove himself couldn't have done a better job.
