NOOOOO! Dobson was describing just HIS point of view.
You have got to stop thinking that evangelicals are uniform in their thought and action. And neither you nor even the holy and infallible Dr. James Dobson speak on behalf of all evangelicals.
To be certain, Dobson is influential - not as influential as he believed in his attempt to play GOP kingmaker - but very influential within certain religious circles.
Since you appear to have a reading comprehension disability, I will repeat this one point of many contained witihn my vanity post - Dobson's unprovoked attack on Thompson was the most signifcant recent mistake in the continuing decline of conservatism within the Republican Party.
I know that but since Dr. Dobson is an Evangelical, and I am an Evangelical and he described my point of view, a point of view about Thompson that I have corroborated with my family and lot of other Evangelical Christians, I'd say that Dobson nailed it this time. He did not influence me, he just agrees with me. There's a big difference.
I don't think that Dobson attacked Thompson, he simply pointed out, in a conversation with a reporter, that Thompson did not appear to be Christian, a fact that did not help him with evangelicals. That's all. I believe that if Thompson had assured Dobson, in private conversation, that he believed that Jesus had died to save him from his sins, that Dobson would have proclaimed "Thank God we have a Conservative Christian running for the presidency!!!". If Thompson is a Christian, he should not have been ashamed or afraid to say so. But he simply wouldn't say so. He is what he is and he ain't what he ain't but thank God that can change if God wants it to.
Nice post BTW. I agree with many of the mistakes you listed.
