Congressional Hopeful Blames Troubles On The Devil

SALT LAKE CITY Republican congressional hopeful John Jacob believes the devil is impeding his efforts to unseat five-term Representative Chris Cannon.

He says there's another force that wants to keep him from going to Washington and the devil is what it is.

Jacob says that since he decided to run for Congress, Satan has disrupted his business deals, preventing him from putting as much money into the race as he had hoped.

Jacob said during a Wednesday immigration event that the devil was working against him, then reiterated his belief yesterday in a meeting with The Salt Lake Tribune editorial board.

He says there's been a lot of adversity, and there's no question he has had experiences that believes are due to an outside force.

That can't possibly be to their credit.

Maybe those folks can drive from Utah to Nevada and join that valedictorian's traveling salvation show. Tambourines. Dancing. Testimony. Good old fashioned fun (for some).

No, but if it helps take down that perfidious open-border SOB Cannon, who am I to argue with it?

I'm no fan of Jacobs. He's a moron. I freely and unabashedly admit that I'm supporting him only because of the animus I feel toward Cannon. ABC: Anyone But Cannon.

i fully believe that the devil is alive and well and interfering in people's lives on a daily basis, but that kind of talk isn't going to get this guy elected, that's for sure!

LOL!

Jacob: Vote for me because theh Devil is on the other side. BTW, I can't find my car keys...who took them.

Now why didn't Pat Buchanan use this excuse? Oh, yeah-he had more ways to show how nuts he was.
