Yes, it does. Because maybe they'll do enough research on him to realize he's not prepared to handle the problems of this country. They're not going to learn not to vote for him when you say he's some bodily excrement. Only the people who already understand why Santorum is a joke will laugh at it. The rest will get enraged and defensive, and end up being more stubborn, and refusing to listen to reason from you in the future.
You need to explain exactly why Santorum isn't prepared to solve the problems his voters think he will solve. If you can give someone a reason to believe something, they will choose it over something with no reason any day. Explain it to them in terms they can understand. Because if you're not doing that, it's like you're telling them to fuck off. You wouldn't want them to do it to you, and because your brain matter follows the same rules as theirs (it's all the same matter), they similarly don't want to be told to fuck off.
People just want to be happy. There is a physical reason for this, and it's precisely why the happiest people are the ones that learn the most. We laugh when we suddenly make sense of something. Comedians have perfected that art, which means they make more sense of things than anyone else.
Want to fix Santorum voters? Put them in the same room as comedians and let them mingle.
