Tom Delay on Palin’s Inspiring Christian “Worldview”

Christianity Today September 4, 2008

In a brief interview I had today, the former House Majority Leader said he was deeply unenthusiastic about McCain but now shares the prevailing ecstasy about Sarah Palin.

“It’s obvious that’s a woman with a world view. I could see it in the way she looked at her family. I could see in the discussion around her child. It’s obvious her faith is her foundation. A Christian has a world view that allows you see a situation…they’ve made the bad choice. So do you see it as a punishment as Obama does or as a blessing as Christians see it?”
