Drawn to the left, or repelled by the right? From what I was reading on atheist boards in 2008, a lot of atheists didn't like Obama but couldn't bring themselves to vote Republican because of the religious right issue. Most people vote what they perceive to be in their best interest. They voted to keep the religious from dictating their lives. I voted McCain because the continued existence of the country was more important to me than the issue of religion.

This is silly, you keep admitting that the right is too religious for atheists, that even the small number of partly conservative atheists have to overcome their anti-faith objections to the right to vote for them. They don't have that same religious issue with the left do they?

By the way that chart never broke out religious blacks and Hispanics, you made that up, it merely listed the entire categories that say they are Christian, it did not try to determine level of religiosity as they did with whites.

Do you ever see the left bashing atheists? Did a leftist VP candidate ever say he didn't think atheists could be citizens or patriots?
