I wouldn't have thought the blood clotting sequence is hard to imagine evolving. Start with a protein that forms clots under specific condiditions (eg exposure to air/seawater). then gradually extra proteins evolve that prevent it clotting at the wrong times, to make it a more precisely controlled system. Really no leaps of the imagination there.
And while it is probably is reasonable to give time to ID, it should probably be proportionate to the evidence for it, rather than equal to the time given to ID as to evolution.
The lesson goes - here; read the start of Genesis. Now, about fossils, dinosaurs, speckled moths, cro-magnon etc. But that kind of approach does not pacify the christian right wing school boards of the Deep (dark) South.
