    Elizabeth Dole's Symptoms: Hagan Strikes Back

    10/31/08
    Yesterday, I detailed the unfortunate doings in North Carolina's Senate race between incumbent, Elizabeth Dole, and challenger, Kay Hagan. In that piece, I pointed out how, by using a phony voice-over to deceive voters into thinking Hagan did not believe in God, Dole was giving Hagan a golden opportunity to make a forceful rebuttal. Well, here it is:



    This is such a strong counter-punch that it very well may win the election for Hagan. Dole screwed up big time, and now faces the prospect of retirement as well as a lawsuit for defamation. And what's the consequence for Christians who knowingly break the Ninth Commandment? Yikes. Note to future candidates, politics and religion may prove combustible when mixed.
