As a Republican Mayor of a small Iowa city, I don't like to claim a lot of credit for the success of Republicans. But, once in a while, I just have to toot my own horn.
For some years now, I've told the reps of Republicans competiting for our Presidential endorsement to pass this on to their candidates, "You are a Christian, but there are lots of branches to our faith. When you talk up your version, you alienate some Republicans and even more atheist Democrats and Independents. Instead, talk about the Devil. Talk about him everywhere. Not only is everyone afraid of the Devil, it's code language for Obama."
It's been gratifying to see six politcal figures talk about the Devil in the last week alone. They are Judge Scalia, Heman Cain, Michele Bachmann, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and, most recently, Rick Santorum.
I've put the word out to Trump's people he needs get his game face on and talk of the Devil soon or he will not be competitive.
I'm absolutely certain Devil talk will finally carry us to victorory in '16.
