Ya think? I just wonder how long it will take MSNBC or some such channel to have pictures of a snake-handling. toothless person on to show what "Pentecostals" believe. I'd be willing to BET that will happen.

Palin says she is not pentecostal.

But shoot, they are going after her 17 year old daughter despite OBAMA saying kids and families were off limits.

I grant you they will go after her faith

Well here, we go. From the Associated Press:

Sarah Palin often identifies herself simply as Christian.

Yet John McCain's running mate has deep roots in Pentecostalism, a spirit-filled Christian tradition that is one of the fastest growing in the world. It's often derided by outsiders and Bible-believers alike.


"Though Pentecostals are diverse and rapidly mainstreaming themselves, the public still perceives them as sectarian and uncompromising, and those traits will not help Palin's image," Wacker said.
