What if Rick Santorum today named Jesus Christ as his vice presidential running mate?

In a bold move that could dramatically alter the playing field of the 2012 GOP presidential race, Rick Santorum today named Jesus Christ as his vice presidential running mate.

Santorum has made an increasing number of comments about his relationship with Jesus in recent speeches, but few Republican insiders expected him to announce that he was anointing Christ as his vice presidential pick.

"This could be huge for Santorum," said Stenson Partridge, a veteran GOP consultant. "Among Republican voters, Jesus Christ is even more popular than Ronald Reagan."

The Rev. Pat Robertson said he was "blindsided" by the news of Santorum's decision: "I talked to Jesus last night, and he didn't mention anything about it."

At a raucous Santorum rally in Davenport, Iowa, today, supporters of the former Pennsylvania Senator could be seen holding signs reading "SANTORUM/CHRIST '12."

It is "highly unorthodox" for a presidential candidate to select a vice presidential running mate who is a prominent figure in the Holy Bible, says Davis Logsdon, dean of the School of Divinity at the University of Minnesota.

But according to Logsdon, if the Santorum-Christ ticket makes it all the way to the White House, it could be historic in more ways than one: "If Santorum is elected and something happens to him while in office, we would be looking at our first Jewish president."

I think I would find that offensive if I could stop laughing.

I heard Virgin Mary is in the running for Secretary of State--maybe she could solve the problems in the Middle East! Regards, Len [fleeing]
