The Rick Santorum campaign; Doubleday field; Tommy John

PA Senator Rick Santorum campaigned near Landisburg, PA at the Doubleday "field of dreams" fantasy camp on Saturday. Campaigning with Santorum and providing his endorsement was former Dodger and Yankee great, Tommy John.

They were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd of rural Pennsylvanians.

Tommy John pointed out that when one professes to be a Christian, he is subject to increased attacks and scrutiny. People are always trying to "poke holes in your story," he said. This was John's experience in baseball and has become the norm in modern politics.

speaking here is former state representative Alan Egolf

Despite all of the national issues and MSM/DNC attempts to unseat Santorum, campaigns come down to events like this one. Numerous events per day, seven days a week from now through November.
