Dobson just said what many people have said for years. I can't understand why anyone would think that this is a big deal. Why would any Christian support any of the "top three" candiates? The big three for the GOP at this point are just plain horrible.

The Big guns in the GOP should be able to figure this out or maybe they just don't want to win in '08.

The problem is that ALL they want to do is WIN, and could care less about principles. For whatever reason, they think that RINOism is the winning paradigm.

... or maybe they're just SCARED of the hot-tempered McPain =)

Because Dobson is a prominent individual in Conservative politics. Certainly grassroots Conservatives can't stand McPain, but can you name prominent personalities in Conservative politics who have denounced him? (Other than talk-show hosts, eg. Levin)

I know it's not a popular thought, but I think the mainstream GOP has abandoned Christian conservativism in order to be re-elected.

Let's face it, in 1994, the GOP hitched the wagon of Christian conservatives for a big win.

That connection was long ago cut, deliberately, I think, by the likes of John McCain.
