I think what we are seeing in DC (with the election of lott) is the sheltered intelectual snobs trying their take over of the belt way.

We've got Human Events--but what other media does conservatism (and I don't mean the Mel Martinez Non-passionate Conservatism) have? NRO is so effete, sterile and silly sometimes, like some Ivy League College Republican club that tries real hard to fit in with the liberal chic.

Catholics, a few Jews, one secular Anglican...it seems to have missed the attn of NR that evangelicals even exist, much less make up a huge part of the conservative voting base. Although, every once in a while they'll run a story on conservative non-Catholic Christians a la "National Geographic Presents"...usually with a title like, "Evangelicals Might Not Be So Awful" or some such patronizing stuff.

Meanwhile, Obama is flattering a very influential Christian writer and pastor of a very large evangelical church...with some good success.

The GOP and the GOP "intellectuals" treats conservatives, and conservative Christians, like the Dems treat blacks.

Ps--I don't think the litterati (sic) are happy with the Lott election. Lott owes no loyalty to Bush.
