I don't recall politicians of the past personalizing their relationship with God as much as they do today. Great speeches from Presidents of the past often reference God in formal ways, for example the Gettysburg address uses the word "god" once.... "one nation, under God".... you know the rest.
Santorum doesn't just refer to God and his personal relationship with God etc.. he actually sites Satan too.
And the Father of Lies has his sights on what you would think the Father of Lies - Satan - would have his sights on: a good, decent, powerful, influential country - the United States of America. If you were Satan, who would you attack in this day and age? There is no one else to go after other than the United States and that has been the case now for almost two hundred years, once America’s pre-eminence was sown by our great Founding Fathers.
