Is that there are people who are such religious extremists and who hate anything other than their own kind will relish the opportunity to vote (regardless of what election cycle it is) for one of their own. Couple that with $ for the tv and an aw shucks, god bless em candidate and consequence be damned. Remember when someone said, as a reason for voting for war criminal gwbush something about "I thick he'd be fun to have a beer with" or something --- well news flash people ---- presidents shouldn't be elected because he's one of the boys! Fucking idiots!
