But, for the sake of argument, suppose that the cross element of this advertisement was purposefullly contrived and the candidate is lying about it now, what would you think about that?

I have no problem engaging in a hypothetical. Let's just say that I would be so deeply offended, that I would likely drop any/all support for any candidate that attempted to engage in the type of activity (call it "subliminal Christian suggestion") that Huckabee is being accused of. It is using a Christian symbol (and by extension, Christianity) for self-promotion, while denying any consequence. Christ died for all of us, and not to become an impartial, third-party reference on someone's resume

Such subliminal Christianity would seem to promote the idea that "I'm too afraid to admit I'm a Christian, but I still want to wrap myself in its virtue for my own gain".

It is because I would consider it such an offense, verging on a 'deadly sin', that I need definitive proof that someone has committed it. It's that serious to me; and I won't make the charge lightly. (a parallel to this could be what has happened to the term "Racist" or "Racism". Both are so overused that I find the accuser as negatively as the accusee)

Hope I've been clear

Merry Christmas
