If I let you pick, then you could grab fifteen liberal churches.
Seriously: folks like the Clintons are an extreme minority. It doesn't stop them from grabbing control of the DNC with enough subterfuge.
Same thing with Chalcedon. They're a small minority; but with enough financing and sufficient discipline (not mentioning their Chalcedon affiliations to the general public, or what Chalcedon's goals were), they could take over the California GOP.
They've lost a lot of their power, because they've made so many WRONG decisions, and they're not willing to engage in Arkanicide.
