I dunno. We can only hope and pray it is so. I have a feeling this may only fan the Obama fire in the eyes of the Dimmocrats.
IMO, I felt that the Saddleback church interviews really could have been more hard-hitting, and thought Rick Warren's approach was just a little too soft. However this below was very telling as far as where the candidates stand on abortion:
John McCain was, by comparison, twice as comfortable, twice as responsive and as such, at least twice as presidential...This placed Mr. Obama in a bind: How exactly do you sugarcoat a radical abortion rights stance in front of a staunch pro-life crowd? His chosen answer was to hem and haw for an uncomfortable spell, concluding eventually that the decision on when life begins is "above my pay grade."
-----
He [McCain] actually seems to be listening to the party base he once regularly alienated; witness the purging of the thoroughly unsatisfactory Tom Ridge from his running mate list last week. Witness his five-word answer to Rick Warren – "from the moment of conception" – that made the Obama answer on when life begins look like the tap-dancing of a very ordinary politician.
