Karen Santorum says women have nothing to fear about her husband becoming president

Although oddsmakers say Mitt Romney should win tonight's Illinois GOP primary, Rick Santorum shows no indication of going away any time soon.

The former Pennsylvania senator will be watching the returns tonight from his home state, which holds its presidential primary election next month.

Meanwhile, the very religious Republican asked his supporters yesterday to pray for his wife Karen hours before she was to appear on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight.. On the program, Mrs. Santorum stressed that women in America should have no fears that her husband would take away their access to contraception, despite his harsh statements about the practice in recent years.
