Faith and politics
Here is a great video from Hot Air discussing the faith and politics double standard. Harold Ford can film ads in a church and wear his faith on his sleeve because he is a “new Dem,” while a Republican who did the same would be roundly criticized by the MSM.
Mary Katharine at Townhall observes:

This candidate for Senate is praying to the Lord with his staffers. Is that even legal? I’m sure it’s not. Only a backwoods, Jesus-freak Republican would sink so low, with his anti-science, voo-doo, Duby-lovin’ beliefs…Oh, wait. What? That’s Democrat Harold Ford? Oh, how refreshing and genuine. He’s not your daddy’s Democrat. I’ve heard that. Very charismatic, they say. Where’s my checkbook?
