Around 8% of Evangelicals are Blacks. They voted their color like they always do.

I would bet the house that the 6 million self described Evangelicals who voted for Obama also look a lot like Obama. Race trumps all.

(Well, you lost...the 6 million are white Evangelicals...and when you toss in Asian, Hispanic and Black Evangelicals, it adds up to millions more)

Of course, why aren't there headlines about the 14.5 million Catholics who voted for Obama? Or the 20 million non-Evangelical Protestants who voted for Obama?

Its time to trash the evangelical base and form alliance with any and all kinds of like minded conservatives regardless of race or religion and rebuild a purely conservative base.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``

That’s been tried. It’s called the Libertarian Party. You two should feel right at home there. With phony-baloney “conservatives” who follow Gary Johnson and Ron Paul.

Don’t forget to bring your bong when you join that party. It’s required.

Pew Forum exit polling said that 24% of voting block were WHITE Evangelicals...that equals about 30 million (by time they get done counting all the votes...probably over 30 million by a hair)...

Evangelicals supported Romney by a greater % than Mormon voters did...Per Pew Forum...79-20% vs. 78-21%

20% of 30 million = 6 mil

I call them “deranged” but I guess that’s a kind of sick.

Well, Catholics supported Obama 50-48%...14.5 million of them voted for Obama...

Are we going to hear from your keyboard to trash the Catholics???

I don’t have any issues with Mormons.

A little weird but they aren’t threatening to hack my head off.

Eff Jesus!

Very clever. I don’t know you, so I’m assuming you knew we knew this was sarcasm.

But with some clowns on this thread.... Eff Jesus! is EXACTLY what they mean.

Yea, you amorals will win without being bothered with the conservatives in America. You don’t need ‘em, superman. :)

Black evangelicals never vote for the Republican. They constitute 8% of the group. Most of the rest held their noses and turned out for Romney. Romney was fortunate that the DNC ran that little ritual at the convention to ban God from the platform. Maybe you would feel happier in the DNC.

(And, oh, since a higher % of Evangelicals voted for Romney than did Mormons, are you going to trash the Lds, too?)

What about non-Evangelical white Protestants?

They supported Romney 57-42%...but since they were 39% of the vote, that = 20 million Obama voters!

Oh, and whereas Evangelicals turned out as many as they did in 2008 -- and were a higher % of the overall voting block in 2012 than 2008 -- what about all the stay-at-home white mainline Protestant and white Catholic voters?

Four million less white mainline Protestant voters were out; two million less white Catholic voters were out...

Well good for you, since you took the bait. I don’t know what “window-licker” is. Maybe you can explain the things you do..... Or on second thoughts I don’t think I want to know.
