Tim Kaine on Capital Sunday (Leon Harris' Show) right now
He articulated a Catholic's pro-choice and anti-death penalty views better than any politician I've ever heard just now.

Once he becomes Governor he will be a force nationally.

2. I'll try to find a transcript, but paraphrasing:
He said due to his beliefs he does not believe in Cap Punishment, but that his Church knows his "fingers aren't crossed" when he takes an oath of office.

The Church understands that as Governor he must uphold the law.

On abortion pretty much the same thing. Regardless of his personal views on life it's a matter of upholding the law.


I don't do his words justice, but he was more convincing than Kerry was I think.

6. Thanks...he is good!
Best of luck to him too!! I was raised Catholic..thus the interest...and while it has been a long time since i was a practicing catholic, i do recall there being a strong belief in my church and cataclism classes...in the rendering to ceasar what is ceasars....or going by the laws of your community.

You'll be able to watch the show on your PC once it's been loaded, probably sometime tomorrow.

5. That seems like a Great post to
have. Not under the thumb of that fascist cnn and being an anchor in the Nation's capital.

I haven't watched cnn since Nov 6, 2002, but I remember liking Harris.

10. It think it would be a major coup for them.
I'm sure either ABC or CBS is considering him.

7. I remember Leon from his CNN days -- great reporter, great anchor
... and he and I exchanged e-mails -- he takes his audience that seriously.
