Are you stuck in the belief that his campaign stance on things has any relation to his personal beliefs. Why would you believe that of any candidate? The last one I believed meant what he said was Ralph Nader. Didn’t get him very far, did it?

“But then I suppose they wouldn’t be doing him a service, because Intelligent Design, as unempirical as it is, probably polls well with the primary voters and phone bank volunteers he’s trying to attract. ”
