Questionable Endorsement
November 8th, 2007Okay, so I’m at the University, reading the news via Wi-Fi when all of a sudden I start laughing and can’t help myself. It’s embarrassing! But there’s no other reaction to this blog entry from Rosie O. She is a blast, a riot and a poet. Not bad for an idiot, eh?
I’d like to also take this opportunity to give a “shout out” to my “boy” Governor Ryan as he finally entered prison yesterday. And I’d like to assure you, Dear Reader new or old, that I don’t often and won’t ever refer to someone as “my boy” again.
To politics!
Pat Robertson has endorsed Rudy Giuliani. I’m not so sure what it means. Right-wing Conservative Christians prefer womanizing abortionists to Mormons? I think that’s a genuine lesson to be learned and something to watch out for — would Conservative Christians prefer to vote for a man who stands for everything they hate or would they vote for the Mormon? I’ve long said, “I dont’ think a Mormon is electable, but is he more electable than a non-Conservative Conservative?” There’s another important question to ask, about that endorsement, too: just how important is Pat Robertson? The Christian Coalition isn’t what it once was and there are a lot of other Religious leaders besides Robertson now, most of them far more influential.
Will they follow? Is Robertson alone? We shall see.
