I think that Rick Santorum has a right to stand up and be a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. He shouldn't get criticized for that, he didn't have to put on the Greenbay Packers cheese head hat if he didn't want to. He has every right to cheer for the team he likes and not put on the hat of the team he don't like!
