Lots of candidates have embarrassing things in their past that they'd hate to have flare up in the middle of a presidential campaign. I think we can safely conclude that we have found Rick Santorum's! At the right, cast your eyes upon the tragedy that is Santorum's high school year book photo--specifically, Carmel High School in Mundelein, Illinois, in 1976. (The picture is from Chris Good's compilation of high school year book photos of the 2012 Republican presidential candidates--it's not pretty, although I recommend clicking through.)
A quick office straw poll here at The Atlantic, conducted amidst uproarious laughter, confirms that this is, in fact, the single worst year book photo that most of us have ever seen. An outright disaster.

Let’s face it, any Presidential candidate that graduated high school in the 70s, is going to be at a distinct disadvantage.
I think Santorum is a handsome guy, and I wish that he’d wear glasses all the time (not those, but up to date frames) because it makes him look a little older. He’s as old as he needs to be, but he has the misfortune of looking 20 years younger than his true age.
Santy looks like an attractive boy with weird glasses and sideburns. Take them off and shave and he’d be a great kid. I am sure every one of those Atkantic staffers is hot with movie star good looks, and all of their high school kids are too, right?
Something is not quite right in the photo of Barrack with his sugar daddy.
What a schnozz. Even back then she was ugly.
Sarah is way hotter now than she was then and even then, she was a babe.
I really like the quotation. My philosophy exactly!
That yearbook picture looks no different from millions of other yearbook photos from the same time.
How 'bout this one, liberal freaks?
Rush Limbaugh today was talking about how the Mouthpiece Media manage to dig up every little thing about Republican candidates but have yet to mention anything about Obama's old girlfriends or even his boyfriends.
