Day In 100 Seconds: Satanic Verses

Day In 100 Seconds: Satanic Verses

With Rick Santorum as the frontrunner, attention has been dragged from his radical current policies, to his consistently immoderate views from years ago.

A focus on Satan and the likelihood that Satan has his sights set on America, unleashed the ire of Romney surrogate Chris Christie, who was more than happy to make sure Santorum didn’t back away, but stand by all he says.

Mitt Romney, meanwhile, is still on the trail, loving all things. And of course President Obama’s out there too, using his dulcet singing voice to make the election into something that more closely resembles American Idol.
