Do you think the evangelical Christians will ever look at the movement elitists in the same way again, or trust them?

It depends. But I do think it is possible.

After Goldwater/Rockefeller it took a Reagan. At least that is what I have gleaned from speaking to people here.

I don't know what it will take this time.

John Batchelor said on WABC radio that he is going to have a major announcement regarding the Miers nomination based on a story that's embargoed until 12:01am. The announcement will occur on his radio program in the 12-1am hour. Don't know if he was hyping, but he sure claimed this was going to be big big big.

A good point...

However, true evangelical conservatives...(not the so called elitist)...have long stopped caring what the Kristols of politics think or say....

...and knowing Dr.James Dobson who is 3rd!!! in line behind Paul Harvey and Rush Limbaugh, and who can count on millions and millions of devoted listeners...

...can be counted on remaining faithful to Bush and Bush types, and not running off the reservation.
