I watched their debate last night. Acrimonious! Conway had everything he needed to attack Rand Paul on the issues, so whoever decided to copy Elizabeth Dole's losing strategy of attacking based on religion was an idiot. Christians were probably won over by Paul's indignance and (fake, I suspect) assurances of his Christianity, and non-Christians are wondering why Conway is implying they are bad people. It sounds like Conway is trying to preserve our stupid War on Drugs anyway, so he can lose for all I care.
