The only way a Republican wins in the general election is by exciting the base, with Christian conservatives being a NECESSARY part of that. They are the central, core Republican voter. If they are not excited and energized, the candidate won’t get pushed over the finish line. If you have your base staying home, you will lose. You can only win by securing your base, and then building out from there.

When I guy can't even say the name of a book in the New Testament correctly and doesn't believe he needs God's forgiveness I don't believe him when he claims to be a Christian. Why would I vote for a person of low character.

Why would a Christian patriot vote for a Dominionist?

Jesus: “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now my kingdom is not from hence”.

George Grant, a leading dominionist writer in The Changing of the Guard, Biblical Principles for Political Action:

“Christians have an obligation, a mandate, a commission, a holy responsibility to reclaim the land for Jesus Christ — to have dominion in civil structures, just as in every other aspect of life and godliness.

But it is dominion we are after. Not just a voice.

It is dominion we are after. Not just influence.

It is dominion we are after. Not just equal time.

It is dominion we are after.

World conquest. That’s what Christ has commissioned us to accomplish. We must win the world with the power of the Gospel. And we must never settle for anything less... Thus, Christian politics has as its primary intent the conquest of the land — of men, families, institutions, bureaucracies, courts, and governments for the Kingdom of Christ.” (pp. 50-51)

(The above quote comes from Dominion Theology: Blessing or Curse by Thomas Ice, published in 1988 by H. Wayne House and Thomas Ice. pp. 412)
