2. IMO, we can all relax...

I have it on good authority that Ted Cruz had his fingers crossed behind his back when he invoked God in his prayer. And immediately afterward, he pulled out a chair, walked around it three times and sat down. That's a pretty bulletproof counter-cootie combo.

Christie knocked wood, which, under normal circumstances, is enough to deflect a backlash whammy. In this case, I'd say that it might not be enough. But then, the prayer was said in New Jersey, and it's obvious that God hasn't heard prayers from New Jersey for quite a while. So... we should be alright.

(Said facetiously, of course).
