Pat Robertson backs Giuliani
There is a developing school of thought that Christian fundies will fall in line behind Rudy! because he is the most authoritarian candidate available. The most animating issue of the 2008 election will be the right to dissent vs the making the dirty hippies shut the fuck up. Yes, the fundies hate Rudy!'s divorce and his lack of enthusiasm for burning homosexuals and such.. but they hate the dirty hippies even more, and Rudy! really really wants to make the dirty hippies shut the fuck up. But I've been saying this for some time now.
Update: I've mentioned a few times that my pet theory about this election (particularly when I'm on a Rudy! kick) involves drawing comparisons to 1968. Having said that, does anyone else see a potential Ron Paul indie bid as this year's Wallace?
