Not The Onion!!

Poor Rick Santorum just can't catch a break. During a particularly hilarious interview with Chris Hayes of MSNBC last night during the Iowa Caucuses, the unnamed precinct captain admits that even he didn't vote for Santorum and the reason is well, too ridiculous to believe....
As the unidentified precinct captain pulled up a photo of the vote tally sheet for the precinct on his phone, MSNBC's Chris Hayes observed that there was an "X" by Santorum's name.
"What, you didn't vote for him?" Hayes asked the man.
"As I was writing down, my pen ran out of ink," the man responded. "I was like, I can't just ask somebody for a new pen while I'm doing this."
