I did not have epistemological relations with that pastor!
http://www.reason.com/blog/show/125553.html :

"Just as when Mitt Romney addressed another sensitive matter, religion, last December, I can pretty much anticipate the insta-reviews: great success. Why? Because those assessments will come largely from elites, a niche that is uncomfortable with race and religion playing too prominent a role in campaigns and that looks kindly upon those candidates who seek to move us beyond the embarrasing bigotry of the past. What actual voters think is a different story, of course.

Just ask Romney. His speech, a month before the Iowa caucuses, won rave reviews from both mainstream commentators and other Christian Right elites."

Rush Limbaugh has been falling all over himself at how great Obama was today. CNN led its 360 show with a statement of how the Republican right wingers were the ones evidencing the most support of Obama's speech today.

Interesting...

1. LOL, the title is terrific.

I only know that because of having friends at a divinity school years ago.
It was their inside joke.

This article makes a good point, IMO. This Clinton supporter had the same thought as above about today's speech:

"What actual voters think is a different story, of course." Truly, only time will tell.
