Thompson not a churchgoer

Somehow, I think this may disqualify him in the eyes of many of the Christian right:

Sept. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Republican presidential contender Fred Thompson, who has based his campaign on appealing to conservative voters, said he isn't a regular churchgoer and doesn't plan to speak about his religion on the stump.

But, it certainly does make him look more honest than most of the holier-than-thou political jerks who claim to be born again. Of course, honesty was never a qualification prized by the Republicans.
