A better week for Republicans. 

Meanwhile, on the other side of the aisle, talk of Obama and Hillary. (Shudder, wince, tic.)

Of all the ways evangelicals could oppose a Romney candidacy, the one suggested here just makes my skin crawl – past theological devisiveness, into naked self-interest.  Any evangelical “pastor” that would worry about interreligious competion, putting aside matters of theology, probabaly isn’t worthy of the title.

When I see anti-Christian bigotry this bad, I wonder if it doesn’t aid a Romney in the general election?  Although, most lefties that bigoted couldn’t tell the difference. 

The eternal struggle between a candidate’s “base” and an appeal to the greater population.  Same issue by someone different, this one a Mormon. (HT: Red State)

The Idaho appearance.

The News From Iowa.  Advisory Committee formed.  The Republican State Convention themes.  The Boston Globe take on the convention.

Comparing and contrasting religions.  Nothing to do directly with this blog, but I thought it was food for thought on the issues here in general.

This could make things interesting in ‘08.

This is a very Christian blog post, but I think it has some interesting things to say about what Christians should and should not fight over.

Tom Brokaw writes a piece for WaPO concerning the White House ‘08 race, draws a paycheck, and says absolutely nothing.
