Rick Santorum's daughter Isabella, better known as Bella, is back in the hospital on Friday as her father takes time off from his campaign to observe Easter. Santorum and his wife, Karen, have asked for "prayers and privacy" as their 3-year-old daughter recovers, but they didn't say why she'd been admitted to care. Bella, who has a genetic disorder called Trisomy 18, was hospitalized with pneumonia in January. Mitt Romney's also taking the weekend off to observe Easter.
