Funny story from the trail:
I met a sweet older woman and got to talking about healthcare. Like many of us, she was getting creamed by the rising costs. As we chatted, I noticed the "Ten Commandments" on a sign in her yard (a very common thing in many parts of my county ?churches give 'em out).
As we ended our talk, she said, "Well, you seem like an honest man, and you know your stuff... so I guess we'll have to vote for you..... I assume you're a Republican?"
"No, ma'am. I'm a Democrat."
This little lady literally jumped for joy: "Praise Jesus! The Democrats are back! Everyone get out here and meet this man." She brought out the whole family. She insisted that I put a yard sign up immediately, she even directed me to place it next to her Ten Commandments sign.
I'm sure some Republicans will ride by and scream "Blasphemy!" at our little front lawn metaphor for the way things ought to be: Separation of church and state, right there for the world to see.
