Is a Barbara Boxer(Calif-D) a "Committed Christian?
Is Dianne Feinstein (Calif-D)?
Carl Levin (Michigan-D)?
Frank Lautenberg (New Jersey-D)?
Charles Schumer (New York-D)?
Ron Wyden (Oregon-D)?
Russell Feingold (Wisconsin-D)?
What about Representatives Brad Sherman, Howard Berman, Adam Schiff, Henry Waxman, Jane Harman, Bob Filner, Susan Davis, Robert Wexler, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Rahm Emanuel, Janice Schakowsky, Benjamin Cardin, Barney Frank, Sander Levin, Shelley Berkley, Steven Rothman, Steven Israel, Gary Ackerman, Jerrold Nadler, Anthony Weiner, Eliot Engel, Nita Lowey, Allyson Schwartz, and Bernard Sanders?
And, wouldn't it be despicable and un-American for any Republican running against any of these great Democrats to say, "Vote for me for Congress, because I'm the "Committed Christian" in this race"?
Unfortunately, Barack Obama's campaign seems to think it would be okay.

Shame on him. Shame on those who excuse him. If any Republican ran on as explicit a religious appeal, we'd be screaming bloody murder. And, when the Republicans do it in the future, their excuse will be, "Obama did it, and you didn't complain!"
