BR supports the death penalty? Eeewww...

Okay, here's a BR position that I don't agree with: He supports the death penalty.

“He’s willing to listen to the proponents, but he still supports preserving capital punishment for the most heinous crimes,” an aide, who asked not to be identified, said Tuesday. "

Strange for a Catholic. But, frankly, a pretty substantial majority of Americans continue to support a death penalty, so, while this could hurt him with liberal Democrats, it doesn't hurt his chances for prez. Plus, it further establishes him as a moderate, which, with the polarization of the Republic, is what we need now. - MC
