It would have to be a B-lister eager for attention. Anyone with a solid career would turn down the career hit of running alongside a sure loser like Rick.
I wouldn't put it quite like this, but I think Santorum is rightly perceived as something other than a top-tier candidate and no otherwise top tier candidate would want to be on a ticket playing second fiddle to him.
I think it'd actually be some second-tier senator or representative, someone respected and with long service, conservative credentials.
