Some people will not be missed


Republican presidential candidate John McCain, who has long identified himself as an Episcopalian, said this weekend that he is a Baptist and has been for years.

Campaigning in ... conservative, predominantly Baptist [South Carolina], McCain called himself a Baptist when speaking to reporters Sunday and noted that he and his family have been members of the North Phoenix Baptist Church in his home state of Arizona for more than 15 years.

"It's well known because I'm an active member of the church," the Arizona senator said.

Nothing against Baptists, but for a "straight talker," McCain has certainly proved to be a squirrelly guy. I believe the former POW used to be against torture as well, until he enabled the Bush Administration's effort to legalize its practice through the Military Commissions Act. Do the Baptists want him?
