Losers often feel they're the king of nothing.
And yet, the last may be first. I wrote a column four months ago about corrupt Henry Clay, the 19th century's Bill Clinton, and noted that he came to Christ only after losing his last attempt at the presidency. Some readers have wondered how that happened, and what happened to Clay afterwards. Sen. Clay's running mate in 1844, Theodore Frelinghuysen, was a human helper in the conversion process. Whig Party leaders had given the vice presidential nomination to Frelinghuysen, a former senator who was president of the American Tract Society and well known for his piety, in the hope that his name would temper voter suspicion of Clay's loose construction of not only the Constitution but biblical ethics.
