Nertz: I always think before I write. I did in fact consider that the guy might have been running from the police for some other reason. However, as far as I could tell from the story, the only reason the cop was actually chasing the guy was because of his erratic driving. If the guy hadn't panicked, he might have made it through the traffic stop with just a ticket. That's what I was trying to say. As for the Santorum thing, allow me to quote the Philly.com Daily News article: "U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum's embattled re-election campaign has pulled most of its television ads off the major broadcast networks, a move that makes some experts wonder if the GOP incumbent is low on cash." If we're suffering from massive cluelessness, I guess the newspaper is, too.

"Since when is facing a possible traffic ticket more frightening than jumping off a bridge?" The guy could have been running from the police for some other reason. Think before you write! "Senator Rick Santorum has pulled most of his TV ads off the major broadcast networks." An untrue statement as he never had any ads on the major broadcast networks. I was in DC, LA, and Chicago and nary a Santorum, Casey, Swann, or Randell ad was on. Maybe because the ads were on local stations in Pennsylvania and not national network buys (which would be stupid). You guys are suffering from some massive clueless.

Phillyist: Yo, Philly in the News
