Don't let sleeves slow you down, man!

Donors willing to fork over at least $100 to Rick Santorum's campaign will get a little thank-you gift: one of the GOP candidate's now infamous sweater vests. Santorum is attempting to rake in another $1 million by tomorrow, reports USA Today, and he's paving the road to riches with 100% cotton. The "official Rick Santorum for President" sweater vest comes in gray, and is, naturally, made in the USA. His website urges "Don't let sleeves slow you down"—but adds that delivery might indeed be slow, due to "extremely high" demand.

Not sold? Consider this: It's "perfect for demonstrating solidarity with true conservatives." The sartorial choice also came up during a CNN interview yesterday: "One of my supporters said this is my Second Amendment vest: The right to bare arms," Santorum quipped.
