i disagree with him from time to time, but i've learned over 20 years of reading him to pay attention to what he says. Personally I feel he's strongest on foreign policy.

i guess i don't see why having an open disdain for the religious right is the right prescription for the Republicans. all too often it seems that anyone who is open about their faith is somehow demonized. i just don't get why that is.
