The GOP and the mark of the devil.
The five-pointed star, also known as the pentagram, can be portrayed two ways. With a single point at the top it is widely used to represent Wicca or the five ethers; Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Luna. In this portrayal it is fairly benign. With the single point facing down it is usually associated with the Goat or Satan. The two points at the top represent the horns, the next two the ears and one at the bottom the beard of the Goat. This presentation is pretty much frowned on.

Interesting that the GOP uses the Goat symbol in its elephant emblem. The best image is on the Spanish RNC page. Link here and scroll to the bottom.
