Politico: "{B}lessing" by Robertson -- who called for assassination of Hugo Chavez and spoke of Europe's "racial suicide" -- gives Giuliani "momentum"

Summary: Politico.com called Pat Robertson endorsement of Rudy Giuliani a "blessing" and said that it gives Giuliani "momentum." Similarly, the Politico's Mike Allen wrote that, with Robertson's announcement, Giuliani "has one of the most resonant imprimaturs with Christian voters." However, in claiming that Robertson's endorsement "gives Rudy Giuliani momentum" -- a questionable claim, given that the endorsement had been announced just that morning -- the Politico ignored Robertson's history of controversial statements.

5. Pat Robertson reveals right wing hypocrisy of 'Christian evangelicals"

If Pat can endorse Giuliani who is an ethically challenged thrice married lapsed Catholic serial adulterer with estranged kids who has been pro abortion rights, there cannot be any 'moral' or religious reason. Does Pat want Giuliani just in order to further Armageddon and fulfill Biblical prophecy or just because Pat wants to be close to who he thinks will hold the power of the next White House and a secret deal exists?
