30 July, 2004
30 July 2004Derrick Z. Jackson of The Boston Globe praises John Kerry for the much-repeated sound bite from his acceptance speech last night: "'I don't wear my own faith on my sleeve. But faith has given me values and hope to live by, from Vietnam to this day, from Sunday to Sunday. I don't want to claim that God is on our side. As Abraham Lincoln told us, I want to pray humbly that we are on God's side.'" "It was about time the Democrats started fighting faith with faith," Jackson writes, reinforcing both the legitimacy of the so-called "God gap," and the likelihood that we're in for another three months of discussing whether Kerry's made it across.
