Despite the rightward lurch of GOP presidential candidates John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Rudy Giuliani, the Christian right has yet to find a hopeful to its liking. The best part of this story was a quote from Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform:

He argued that with the right promises, any of the [candidates who recently spoke to the Council for National Policy, a conservative group] could redeem themselves in the eyes of the conservative movement despite their past records, just as some high school students take abstinence pledges even after having had sex.

"It's called secondary virginity," Mr. Norquist said. "It is a big movement in high school and also available for politicians."
