Mega dittos.
.. with all the opprobrium that rightfully entails
< spit >
I’m a Christian who is much disgusted with my fellows. For the most part they support the destructive, hateful, larcenous welfare state. They see this mass of envy, jealousy, covetousness and theft as goodness and light. Somehow they think that Jesus told them to take the golden talents from the man who has five and give them to those who have fewer.
And those who are so spiritual that they are no earthly good.
well its pretty much over for conservatism..the voting machine is set on auto pilot..its over ..we are a one party country...and here comes our first didtator
Thats my take. If Romney would have received the same number of votes that McCain did, he’d have won.
Now they get to live with the consequences. Hope they are prepared.
Amen....but hey they kept themselves PURE by not SOILING themselves with a Mormon President!!! GOD HELP THEM! GOD HELP ALL WHO VOTED FOR OBAMA!! They have a LOT to answer for.
The only Christians that need to be blamed are the ignorant idiots like Todd Akin.
Every Evangelical I know voted with gusto.
The question is would Romney have wone with the Evangelical turnout? Clearly he could have carried Virginia, Florida, and Ohio, but he still needed one more. There aren’t enough Evangelicals in CO, NV or NH to make the difference. There are a lot of Evangelicals in IA, but the gap was pretty large.
Was the gap too large in PA?
The lack of Evangelical enthusiasm certainly cost the largest 3 swing states and prevented Romney from running up large numbers in NC, SC, and GA, which were way closer than they should have been, but we still would have only gotten to 266 EVs.
but now we know: the 14 million missing voters from Romney’s column are Evangelicals.”
Exactly how do we know that?
Have you counted all the votes? Or is your analysis based on the 90% reported so far.
Probably didn’t vote for him because he is Mormon.
ping for later. Man, have I got words for you......
bump
The Democrats have been rounding up one group after another, by making promises somebody else has to keep. Until the Republican Party starts cultivating Latinos, blacks, Asians, and even Muslims, it will continue to lose elections.
Again, for the record:
(1) I am not an evangelical; I am Catholic, though I grew up Southern Baptist.
(2) I did indeed vote for Romney.
Now on to commenting:
If I were an evangelical, I would never align myself with someone like the author of this article, who feels obliged to take cheap shots at Evangelical religious beliefs.
Furthermore, the author takes it on faith that Romney is pro-life (record speaks otherwise) and anti-gay-rights (record speaks otherwise).
Maybe the evangelicals sadly concluded that there really wasn’t that much difference in SOCIAL/CULTURAL issues between the two. Given REPUBLICAN SCOTUS appointments (Roberts, Kennedy, Souter, O’Connor) maybe they are on to something.
By ascribing HATE as the motivation the author is engaging in typical LEFTIST projection and should be ashamed of himself.
And, I would also point out, that a very short time ago the owner of this site was vowing to never, ever vote for Romney. I can hardly see how one can be angry with evangelicals for doing likewise.
Our founding fathers were just like these selfish jerks.
Lots of sweeping claims in this article without a shred of statistical evidence to support it. And Romney won all the conservative states where the greatest numbers of evangelicals live.
Is there any evidence of an evangelical “boycott” in the battleground states where the election was lost?
I’m not buying this.
I am an evangelical who did vote for Romney.
Most evangelicals know darn well what was at stake and what a 2nd Obama term would mean.
While I certainly had my reservations about voting for him, there was no contest when compared to Obama.
I suspect at this point that once again, polls are being used as a weapon... this time to attack Christians directly.
The national news organizations are a cowardly unaccountable tool of our enemies... hell bent on destroying the very foundations of what made this country great... and people I suspect are going to just ignore the source of polls like this and continue to give them credibility regardless of what they do.
