On Today this morning, Tim Russert suggested the conservative position on embryo-destroying stem cell research has become evangelical “dogma” (and how about your Catholic church, there, Tim?) and added this could be a real “sleeper issue” for Democrats. Didn’t they say that last summer, too? Ron Reagan was leading the New World Order? Where’s President Kerry? The issue must still be asleep.

PS: I’m sure Brian Anderson would offer a rebuttal to Russert with the South Park Christopher Reeve/stem cell episode.
