Rick Santorum’s Daughter’s Diagnosis: What Is Trisomy 18?
Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum is facing some tough challenges both on the campaign trail and at home. His daughter Isabella, or “Bella,” 3, was hospitalized over the weekend with pneumonia, a common complication for children who are born with the rare genetic condition known as trisomy 18. During a call with Florida voters on Sunday, Jan. 29, Santorum said his daughter was recovering: “She without a doubt has turned a corner.” Trisomy 18 causes patients to have three copies of chromosome 18 instead of two. The additional DNA can lead to medical and developmental problems affecting the brain, heart and other organs, which make it difficult for most affected infants to survive past the first few weeks. Fifty percent of infants born with the disorder die [...]

Despite all the ups and downs, the results today are [...]

By: Edmund Jenks - West Coast Editor With barely enough time to soak in the resounding and unexpected win in the South Carolina primary by former insider turned outsider, Newt Gingrich, NBC News Rock Center with Brian Williams is conducting the first of two televised GOP field debates before the Florida primary. The primary result in South Carolina (Newt - 40% vs Mitt - 28% ... a 12% spread) put egg on the faces of many recognizable Republican leadership faces, the most recognizable of which was the 2008 presidential election's Republican nominee, John McCain, New Jersey Governor Chris Cristie, and past Republican Political Party leader, Hailey Barbour. This potential Republican 'ruling class' drubbing may continue in Florida if the most recent polls from Rasmussen are to be [...]
