Woke up this mornin’, thinkin’ I was still ahead
Well, I woke up this mornin’, thinkin’ I was still ahead
But Rick snuck up on me, so I just went back to bed.

The polls, they must be lyin’, ‘cause I know it can’t be true
The polls they must be lyin’, ‘cause I know it just ain’t true
I been spendin’ lots of money, I’m doin’ all that I can do.

You may have missed this quotation from Rick Santorum last fall, talking about how government programs like food stamps and housing assistance make children feel like “they’re entitled to so much”: “Suffering, if you're a Christian, suffering is a part of life. And it's not a bad thing, it is an essential thing in life ... There are all different ways to suffer. One way to suffer is through lack of food and shelter and there's another way to suffer which is lack of dignity and hope…”

The Ron Paul campaign has a plan to ensure that Ron Paul delegates are elected to the convention, regardless of the voting results in non-binding causes in Iowa, Minnesota and Maine. The Plan was discussed in detail by Ron Paul strategist Doug Wead in a recent Rachael Maddow show.

Juan Cole has published a list of 10 Catholic teachings that have been rejected by Rick Santorum, who is a strong supporter of the Church’s position on birth control. The list includes Church opposition to the death penalty, the continued Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories, the treatment of illegal immigrants as criminals, and the Bush concept of preventive war. The Catholic Bishops favor the provision of health care for all Americans, an increase in the minimum wage, the right of workers to organize and join unions, and the provision of welfare for needy families.

An intense controversy surrounds the Obama adminstration's ruling that insurance plans should cover the costs of birth control measures. Exceptions have been granted to churches that oppose birth control but not to church-affiliated institutions like hospitals and universities that serve the general public. Twenty-six states have similar laws on the books already; this includes several states that grant no exceptions to religious organizations whatsoever.
