The problem is that it is not a strawman, as the creationists take over the party, and they are, because they are getting louder and louder, those that are politically with the Republican party, but are scientifically literate, will leave it in droves, as I have been seeing.
This is not a strawman, it is a fact.
Actually, there aren't enough of them to take over any party, not even Pat Buchanan's party.
Now, if you folks want a challenge, you might go try convincing the Democrats that evolution is possible ~ that they do not have to continue to be drones to the end of their days.
