On the DMN Blog. Rod gets called Torquemada. He can add that to the list.

His primary debate opponent on the blog says:

Inquisitors separate the good enough Catholics from the not-so-good enough Catholics. I think that’s what you did to Mr. Kerry. You called him “ignorant” and a “Catholic in name only.” Frankly, I think that’s outside your competency to judge. But I’ll say this: It’s a good thing for him that this is the 21st century United States and not 15th century Spain. They don’t still burn heretics, do they

?

(By the way, I heard a report on the NPR/Slate program about Kerry’s big rally in Cinciana (as we call it here). Apparently the new protest technique at Kerry events is for a group of anti-Kerryites to plant themselves in the middle of the crowd and then start slapping flip-flops together on cue. I laughed.)
