Dobson listed McCain's many sins, including support for embryonic stem cell research, opposition to a gay marriage ban for the U.S. Constitution, and the use of "foul and obscene" language. But Dobson didn't say who evangelical voters should vote for, leaving many to guess. And on Tuesday, in many cases, like chose like.

Chow & Tell: Taste Buds at Blue Adobe Grille
Along with our dip, we chose a small cup of red chile pork posole soup with spicy mixes of roasted pork and hominy in a red chile broth ($5.25). The red chile pork posole could be an elixir for the ill in small isolated villages. Our server graciously brought us a sample of the green chile chicken corn chowder ($3.50). The chowder was thick and creamy enough to comfort our taste buds. Do you see a theme here? Staying true to the New Mexican cuisine, green/red chile is used in almost every dish at Blue Adobe. The lobster dip was delicious although we would have preferred to enjoy it with tortilla chips instead of the deep fried flour crisps. As for the soups, we liked the red chile pork posole better. The spices and flavor hit the spot. For dinner Jennifer picked the chorizo stuffed chicken ($16), which was a pecan-grilled chicken breast stuffed with chorizo, green chiles, fontina cheese and smothered with anamaretto mushroom cream sauce.
Vines: Priorities change for Strader
State Rep. Parkey Strader said battling liver cancer has given him a change in priorities, and "you will not see Parkey on the ballot again." The Republican who represents the 14th District in northwest Knox County disclosed last week that he will not seek re-election after two terms. He previously served as property assessor, first getting elected in 1972 and serving until 2000. He then became chief deputy in the assessor's office. Strader was diagnosed with cancer on July 5, 2006. A doctor at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston told him he could expect to live 13 months. It's now going on almost 1 1/2 years, he said. He's had multiple surgeries and other treatment. "Prayers do work," he said. Strader announced he is resigning as chief deputy to Knox County Property Assessor John Whitehead effective Dec.
Saints 2-3 QPR
The QPR keeper's ball out was then intercepted and Saints found themselves with three players in behind and just Camp to beat. Jason Euell had the ball on the right and quickly squared to Stern John who just had to side foot home from the penalty spot but skied his effort so far over the bar. Camp was in action again three minutes later when he palmed away Andrew Davies' header from a corner. And predictably Saints were made to pay for their wastefulness when QPR equalised on 38 minutes. Rowan Vine charged past several despairing tackles and fed in Rowlands who finished low past the advancing Davis inside the area for 1-1. And it got worse just before half time when QPR took the lead. Damien Delaney put in a deep cross from the right, Patrick Agyemang had peeled off to the far post and in behind left back Jermaine Wright and side footed low past Davis from the edge of six yard box for 2-1.
