Last week, I wrote about the Values Voters Debate in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on Sept. 17. I mentioned that even with two-thirds (19 million) of the evangelical Christian eligible voters sitting on the bench in the last presidential election, we "values voters" still made up the largest voting block in the country – 36 percent (over a third) of Bush's voters.
That third was up 10 percent from 2000. What would happen if we increased it by another 10 or 20 or 30 percent? We'd have a formula for victory. And you don't have to be an Einstein to see it: E=mv² Election = Majority of Value Voters. That's all we need... Rasmussen, just reported its reasons why "Each leading GOP candidate will not win the party nomination." It's up for grabs...

At least match the correct formula with the correct scientist!
come on, guys, it’s a takeoff on E=mc^2, not the kinetic energy equation!
LOL, I thouhgt this too. Before I read the article I thought it was going to be a commentary about overwhelming FIREpower in Iraq against the terrorists.
Nice try, but the Party of Ethical Relativity still has the edge. Still, the article is above average for WND.
The enjoyable point is that because only 7.2% of Americans voted in the primaries, the Values Voters, if they choose, could easily require their Republican nominee. If they showed up at the general election then, they could control the presidency. It’s all whether or not sitting on one’s backside is the most important thing or not.
I always vote, always have since being eligible. We have 2-4 elections a year and a lot of it is silly stuff somebody got put on the ballot but I vote on it anyway. There was one election that was decided by one vote and the loser demanded a recount. I was there in the next room when they did the recount and he still lost by one vote. That’s one time my vote counted for sure.
