A significant minority of Evangelicals who can’t put their hatred of these two groups behind their love of country are too big of part of the conservative base to elect anyone with the “wrong” religion.

Golly things must have changed over the years...
I can remember during the Democrat conventiobn in 1992 when Clinton was nominated...
We all sttod aoutside the PO building, arms around each other or holding hands...
singing praise songs to our Lord Jesus Christ, and rallying against abortion together...
Catholics and Protestants together...
I didnt hear one ugly word...
Not then nor at the rally at the Catholic Church one night...
Was that Mitt Romney and his Dad I saw standing with us against abortion ???
As for Jindal and Cantor...
You listed them with Romney...
Do you consider them liberals also ???
One is a Catholic...
One is a Jew...
I didbnt hear you say you planned to vote for them...
You said “a bigot like Huckabee.”
Then you claim that “some conservatives will be willing to give up their insistence on a religious test.”
I didnt see many conservatives being bigoted against Huckabee or Romney...
I did see the mormons in Utah voting 90% for Romney..
But thats OK cause the mormons also voted for Obama in Salt Lake County
and helped elect the first mormon president...
In fact more of the mormons in Utah voted for Obama than we Christians did in TN...
Nope they aint bigots in Utah
;)
Unfortunately, the data sort of shows otherwise.
Nevertheless, I could have lived with the votes in the other 48 states not being included.
How is Huckabee a “bigot”?
