Hello Rocky,

I have noticed that in recent photos, Hillary Clinton is sporting various crosses around her neck. Some are quite large and noticeable.   Any comments or insight?  Do you think this will help with her bid for the White House?

I’m not as cynical as most.  Senator Clinton wants the world to know that Jesus is her BFF, and a little bling is the quickest way to get the word out.  What’s the alternative?  I suppose some lowly staff scribe could draft a press release, but those things always get politicized, and the end result would probably resemble the following:

 “For Immediate Release: Senator Clinton has accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior.  New York’s Junior Senator announced Wednesday that Jesus Christ secured payment for our sins through his death, just as she secured Federal Funding through SB #1409 for widening of the Westchester Parkway.  The Senator went on to point out that “when they rolled back the stone in front of Christ’s tomb and found that he had risen, eternal life was guaranteed for all, and rolling back the Bush tax cuts can guarantee health care funding for all.”

When you keep it in perspective, a little crucifix doesn’t seem like such a big deal.
