Headline from the New York Times:
Christian Right Labors to Find '08 Candidate
[Note: not opening paragraph]
Many conservatives have already declared their hostility to Senator John McCain of Arizona, despite his efforts to make amends for having once denounced Christian conservative leaders as "agents of intolerance," and to former Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani of New York, because of his liberal views on abortion and gay rights and his three marriages.
[snip]
Although each of the three [ed note: Hunter, Huckabee, Brownback] had supporters, many conservatives expressed concerns about whether any of the candidates could unify their movement or raise enough money to overtake the front-runners, several participants in the meetings said.
So, the Christian Right (the article notes the presence of Grover Norquist as well) can't find a candidate who is (A) as popular as the front runners (McCain, Guiliani) or (B) can raise enough money to compete with the front runners. Which leaves them without a candidate in 2008.
To which the only rational resonse is: BWAHAAAHAAAHAHAAHAAA.
