To: Cincinatus' Wife
Richard Land, president of the Religious and Ethics Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention, takes a hard line against virtually all the major Republican candidates. He says he'd vote for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, New York Democrat, over Mr. Giuliani if the 2008 presidential race came down to such a choice. And if Mr. Giuliani wins, "he'll do so without social conservatives," Mr. Land said.

Two points - Going in reverse order - MR. Land may be speaking some truth that Giuliani may very well have to win without social conservatives. But the fact that he would vote for Hillary in ANY circumstances just shows why the SBC is back on their downhill slide. I held out some hope for the SBC of recent. But we now see what is turning that organization back liberal...

Funny, the SBC ain't the ones saying the GOP needs to ditch the pro-life agenda. Rudy and his boosters are.

So just who is sliding downhill here?

Well, to be honest, as stupid has his vote would be, in the state he lives in voting for Hillary will be a throwaway vote, because even Rudy can win that state.

But I don’t think he’ll REALLY vote for hillary, I think he’s just being overwrought, like how all the pro-Rudy people answer any complaints about Rudy with “So I guess you just want Hillary to be the next President”.

Land is just saying himself what the pro-Rudy people would say about him if he didn’t.
