McCain Says He Wants A Christian President

We just hope the Dems (such as Bill Clinton yesterday on Meet the Press) will finally stop throwing accolades at this pandering moron. From The NYTimes:

‚”I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles, that’s a decision the American people would have to make, but personally, I prefer someone who I know who has a solid grounding in my faith,” Mr. McCain said in response to a question about the possibility of a Muslim’s running for president… ‚”I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation,” Mr. McCain said….Mr. McCain, an Episcopalian, said he regularly attends a Baptist church and described himself as a ‚”practicing Christian.” He said he has been in regular discussions with a pastor about converting to Baptist. But he said that he would not convert during the campaign because of the perception that he was doing it for political reasons. ‚”I would not anticipate going through that during this presidential campaign,” Mr. McCain said. ‚”I am afraid it might appear as if I was doing something that I otherwise wouldn’t do.”
