St Peter didn't "get away with it" He had a fearful time with a bad
conscience and had to make verbal amends - three times !!

"I care not if you bridge the sea,
Or ride secure the cruel sky,
Or build consummate palaces,
Of metal or of masonry;
But have you wine and music still,
And statues, and a bright-eyed love,
And foolish thoughts of good and ill,
And prayers to them who sit above ?"
James Elroy Flecker: "To a poet a thousand years hence." (1915)

> There appears not to be a patron saint of elections (though I gather
that St. Chad has been nominated), but for some races today Americans
might invoke St. Eustace (difficult decisions), and St. Jude Thaddeus
(desperate causes).
how about Peter?
didn't he Lie three times before dawn and get away with it?
that ought to qualify him.
or, maybe he's not the patron of Elections, only of Candidates.
