Some of us, I'm sure, are watching the US Presidential Primaries. It's been a wild ride so far, and might remain so for months.
I don't want to get into specifics on any candidates (could get explosive, don't want that) but I did want to state, for the record:
Mike Huckabee does *not* represent all Evangelical Christians.
There, I've said it. He's a Baptist, and a former preacher. Great. I'm not a Baptist but my church has a lot in common with them, so I'm cool with that -- but so what? I'd be more comfortable voting for the Mormon in the race (he's not my first choice but he seems okay). Huckabee's policies, on the other hand... well, let's just say I'm getting to where I wince everytime "Huckabee" and "evangelical" are in the same sentence.
Okay. I feel better now. You may now go back to your regularly scheduled message boards.
