I just wonder how much of this is due to the strange behavior of Dobson accusing Thompson of NOT being a Christian.

This movement is making some really strange and uneducated decisions these days.

The MSM confuses me. What is an “Evangelical Christian” what is a “Fundamentalist”. Why is Huckabee described as both when he is a “Southern Baptist”. Are not all Christians who believe in the Trinity, Jesus is the begotton Son of God, that he was crucified and resurrected on the 3rd day, and belief is these things with repenting of ones sins and by the grace of God you are saved all Fundamentalist Christians. Are not Christians supposed to help with the “Great Commmission” and therefore Evangelical. I just do not get the MSM meaning of things. Or others who throw around the words like cuss words.

What is strange about Christians supporting the only candidate that believes in the issues they are most concerned?

Ronald Reagan would be Huckabee. But, the other three RINO candidates that are hostile to the values of conservative Christians aren't going to win over that voting block.

Great, we are getting the GOP nominee picked by the equivalent of the lady who got kicked off the bus for reading her Bible out loud.

He said can you stop reading, and I said "No."

No sense discussing foreign policy expertise, electability, marginal tax rates, or even illegal immigration with this nice lady. Huck is one of us, she says.

Huckabee has surged because he won a couple of debates and he’s got evangelical support. If a quick rise can happen to the liberal pro-life evangelical Huckster, it can happen to the conservative pro-life evangelical Hunter.

I do not know Duncan Hunter’s strategy. I was surprised that he chose not to campaign in Iowa. However, he may yet surprise us even before New Hampshire. Because he has campaigned in Wyoming, which has a race before New Hampshire, and no one else is campaigning there.

Then there’s New Hampshire. Hunter’s already there while everyone else wraps up in Iowa.

There are so many people, even on FR that like to imply that Southern Baptist are over the top, snake handling, holy rolling terrorist.

You described Southern Baptist doctrine very well.

Are you proud in supporting an open-borders socialist...because he claims he's "God's candidate"?

That was Robertson, not Dobson. Dobson has not made an endorsement, though he has narrowed the field by attrition.

Did you support Ronald Reagan? I believe he made a little amnesty deal.

That was Pat Robertson (who endorsed Giuliani). Dobson swore to lead the Christians to a new party if a pro-choice candidate is nominated.
