{Religious conservatives will not win in some states}

Can you not read? Did I say Oklahoma where I live! Of course there can win here in Oklahoma but I have news for you -- except maybe for Istook, they don't consider themselves members of the religious right and I am not even sure about him. They are conservative and religious but members of the religious right they are not. J.C., Keating, Nickles have had some things to say about the likes of Robertson and Falwell for a long time!

If you think members of the religious right are going to win states like Maine or the rest of New England except maybe NH, think again! Not going to happen!

There is a big difference between being conservative and religious and being members of the religious right demanding that every politician live up to what they want or they won't vote! I have met some of those types. BTW, I am Baptist if you are wondering so don't get the impression I am some Liberal.

Fair enough. Like RINO, the phrase, religious right, is a term that is often misapplied and overused. For example, I have co-workers who think pro-choice Republicans who oppose tax funded abortions are disciples of Jerry Falwell.
