Has nothing to do with hysteria it’s your hypocrisy ...when these “Snake Handlers” you speak of are voting for Trump they’re praised to high heaven ..when they show up at Ted Cruz events you get on you anti religious rant...as per your #76 post!!
What you don’t “get” is that evangelical voters are NOT all ‘snake handlers’ (that does get you CruzBots up in arms doesn’t it?) evangelical voters are spiritual and *informed* voters and they have perhaps additional insight into who is, and who is not, a phony when it comes to spiritual issues. The results in South Carolina would seem to bear that out, as painful as it must be for you to face it.
The problem is not in fact, with evangelical voters, the problem is with candidates who USE religion to woo those voters, there is a vast difference between a candidate who runs his rallies like a religious revival (as does Cruz) contrasted with Trump who has simply stated that he will be “the greatest advocate for Christians” if he is elected President. He isn’t giving sermons like an early 20th century revivalist preacher, there are no calls to repent and so forth, he doesn’t subscribe to some absurd “seven dominions” theology, and no family member of Trump has asserted that “God has annointed him to rule over society”.
There are always some religious oriented voters who will swoon, speak in tongues, fall out into the aisles, almost on cue if a candidate punches all of their spiritual buttons in the right way.
And of course aligning themselves with a true religious nutcase like Glenn Beck.
Your candidate has fatal problems. Consider grief counseling this coming Tuesday night.
