To the editor:
How many ways can you try to glamorize a pig? Ask Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, since the Republican vice presidential nominee has tried them all. No matter how many ways you dress it up, it’s still a pig. (“While other Republicans have fled Donald Trump, Mike Pence is doubling down on their campaign,” Oct. 11)
If anyone has a judgment problem, it’s clearly Pence. But when you consider Pence’s long career attacking women’s personal healthcare decisions and LGBT rights, his allegiance to the misogynistic Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump isn’t surprising.
Pence’s measured and dignified defenses of Trump’s vulgarity won’t save his Great White Hope. But his steadfast loyalty to “this good man,” a vulgar and serial adulterer antithetical in every way to his supposed pious Christian values, will forever stain his legacy.

Note from KBJ: When I read the first sentence, I thought the letter was about Hillary Clinton, Porcine-American. By the way, since when is killing your baby a "healthcare decision"?
