A family band called First Love recorded and released a campaign song for Rick Santorum on March 6, and the video has already racked up over 300,000 views on YouTube. [507,300 as of this post]
'Game On' features lead vocals from sisters Camille and Haley Harris, and backup from what looks to be the entire extended Harris family.
The music video was shot outside the Jubilee Christian Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where mom and dad Harris are pastors.
"Oh no, this is it guys, I just know its going to go viral," father David Harristold FOX 43 he screamed when he first heard the tune. "From the very first note that came out of their mouths."
"The music that we have, we believe came from God. Especially this song," he added.
Daughter Camille Harris said she knew they had hit the big time when they saw a tweet from the candidate himself.
"[He] said something like 'love the song and video 'Game On,' thank you Harris family," Camille Harris said.

Palin: "And for these lame-stream media characters to get all wee-weed up about that, first you have to ask yourself, 'Have they ever attended a Sunday school class even? Have they never heard of this terminology before?" And that's why they got so, you know, just whacked out about the speech," Sarah Palin told Sean Hannity on FOX News tonight.
Me: Excellent point! No, they probably haven't ever attended a Sunday School class. Instead, they've (media people) imbibed the milk of radical secularism and consequently look on Christians as weird and a danger to society. Which illustrates Santorum's point. America is involved in a spiritual contest. It's original assumption of transcendent morality based on a faith in God (see the Declaration of Independence) is being scrapped for radical secularism and atheism with its attendant consequences.
- (Original Post) Rick Santorum's 2008 speech at Ave Maria University has surfaced in which he said that Satan is destroying academia, politics, and the Protestant Church. I listened to it and agree with everything Santorum said. Pundits, of course, think (and hope) this tape will damage or destroy Santorum's presidential aspirations. It's only four minutes long. Listen and see what you think. I've posted Rush Limbaugh's response below.
RUSH: I mentioned earlier in the program that Santorum, people have dug deep and they found a speech that he gave back in 2008 in Ave Maria, Florida, at Ave Maria University. Drudge has this plastered up. The Democrats have found it. It's all over the place. Think Progress and whatever leftist think tanks have dug this up, and it's part of the predictable attempt to impugn Santorum as an absolute religious nut and wacko. But he did say these things and he'll to have an answer for these things when queried. Let's play these sound bites. We have three of them. This is where Santorum has said that Satan as set his sights on America. Again, this is at Ave Maria University, August of 2008, in Ave Maria, Florida.
SANTORUM: 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's been the case for now almost 200 years, once America's preeminence was sown by our great Founding Fathers.
RUSH: Okay, so he said it. Can we take you back to the United Nations? What was it, 2000... I don't know, three or four or five or six. Hugo Chavez shows up, he speaks either the afternoon Bush spoke earlier or the next day, but he gets to the microphone at the United Nations and the General Assembly and starts sniffing around. (Sniffing) He says, "I can still smell the sulfur. The Devil was here," and he had accused Bush of being the Devil. And the assembled monsters that look like they're out of Star Wars bar scene that made up the UN General Assembly all started laughing. So we're back to the double standard. Hugo Chavez can show up and call George W. Bush Satan. "Hey, hey! You know what, that's right! That's great. Let's laugh about it. Let's applaud it." Santorum gives a speech in Ave Maria, Florida, back in 2008. "Oh, my God, we're dealing with a nutcase! Oh, wow, what a fanatic weirdo. What are we gonna get next, an exorcism?" So the double standard does exist. Here's more from the same speech from Santorum.
