Who Said That?

“I'm not coming here [to a church service] to ask for your vote. That's up to you and it's not the right place.  But I am coming here to ask you for something very special and more important: I'm asking for your prayers.”

In light of some of the earlier posts about presidential politics, have fun with this one!  Leave your guesses in the comments section below.  No google searches.

Update on Thursday, January 17, 2008 at 08:03AM by Kim Riddlebarger

This comes from secularized-Roman Catholic Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, speaking at Sunday services at El Rey Jesus Church in Miami.  He was quoted by the Associated Press.

Ironically, he gets it when the evangelical Mike Huckabee doesn't.

It seems like I actually heard something like this from Rudolph Giuliani (of all people...!)

[Hannah B.]

God must gag during political campaign seasons as everyone becomes soooo "Christian".

Guiliani ... lying through his teeth.

["lee n. field"]

Huckabee? Hitler? Hillary? Ronaldus Magnus?

Could be anybody playing the religion card.

[Benjamin P. Glaser]

Obama?

[Chris Malamisuro]

William Jefferson Clinton

[Tee]

Obama

[Jared S.]

Sounds like Hillary at Saddleback, perhaps...

[Rick B.]

Hillary Clinton.

[MSW]

I'm betting [nevermine, I don't gamble]

Bill Clinton

BTW

The sucker bet would be the Huckster. So that must be wrong. After all, didn't Obama talk about "we can bring in the Kingdom right here and now" in a recent speech?

i haven't heard this in the news, but it has to be huckleberry...

[Russ O.]

I would say Rudy Giuliani. However, it could be any of the candidates acting like they're such great Christians.

[Amil]

Hitler.

[hb]

I believe it's Huckabee...seems I read this somewhere.

[Jason]

Hillary, because she doesn't have a prayer!

[Philip Walker]

The Huckablunder, surely?

[Zrim]

(The Hitler guesses are funny. Since when do fascist dictators need to make sure everyone understands he isn't asking for votes? Or for prayers...or for...anything?)

I'd say it's the "Rick Warren with a southern accent," Huck.

[Howard]

After reminding Zrim that Hitler was elected I'll cast my vote for Hillary ... perhaps I should phrase that differently!

[RDB]

Hmm, so who was it?
