At the Al Smith Dinner

 

The two Presidential nominees met one more time at the Al Smith Dinner in New York City the other night. Seated with them is Cardinal Egan of the Archdiocese of New York.

Al Smith was the first Catholic to win a Presidential nomination. He ran in 1928 and got clobbered by Herbert Hoover.

There has only been one other Catholic to gain a nomination for a major party. He went on to become President. Anyone?
