From Vice To Virtue?

There will never be an excuse to vote for someone who cannot name a single newspaper that she has ever read. No one deserves a clear run against such a candidate. So Obama must face a credible primary challenge next time.

But by 2012, might Sarah Palin have returned to her cradle Catholicism. She has already moved from the Pentecostalism of the Wasilla Assembly of God to what I had expected to be the standard American nondenominational fundamentalism of the Wasilla Bible Church. However, that church holds a Communion Service every month, which is far more frequently than most American nondenominational fundamentalist churches, some of which never in practice hold Communion Services at all. Palin is clearly on some sort of journey. Could it be the journey home?

Even if not only for this reason, pray for her.
