View from the choir

I am a Catholic layperson and Secular Franciscan with a sense of humor. After years in the back pew watching, I have moved into the choir. It's nice to see faces instead of the backs of heads. But I still maintain God has a sense of humor - and that we are created in God's image.

Huckabee article

The Washington Post has an interesting piece on Mike Huckabee:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/11/02/AR2007110201646.html

One part of it reads:

Huckabee is for real -- a man poised to go further on the national stage than any other candidate produced by the Christian conservative movement. Sure, some pundits still write him off, and back home, detractors insist that he's just angling for a plum Cabinet post. But you can spot an awfully convincing blueprint for how the candidate once tagged as "the hillbilly Ronald Reagan" could win the Republican nomination -- or end up as the inevitable vice presidential pick on a GOP ticket led by Rudy Giuliani. That's more than you can say for some of Huckabee's rivals.

Well, Reagan is not a selling point with me - and if he's vp on Giuliani's ticket I'll consider him a hypocrite (and someone I won't vote for).
