Former Sen. Rick Santorum was also known as "the comeback kid." This was released in 2003, when Santorum was halfway through his second term in the Senate. He had a history of defeating incumbent Democrats, but was defeated in the 2006 election. I don't know whether it's about Santorum, Clinton or high school, but Santorum would be more relevant than Clinton. The New Pornographers are too cryptic in this song to really analyze, I think.
