Evangelicals are principled and will vote their principles, no matter what.
That's why they are not reliable PARTY voters. Never have been, never will be. They can and will vote dem (did in the 06 elections...dims who opposed abortion and gay marriage did very well with evangelicals), GOP or 3rd party if necessary.
However, it IS possible for the GOP to form a new majority. This can be done IF the evangelicals start their own, 3rd party right away. If they don't, the GOP will lose and lose big time in 08. It'll be the congressional mid-terms before any comeback can begin.
By then the fairness doctrine and federal funding of all elections will be in place. Of course, the govt will only fund those candidates who are "mainstream".
No so-called Evangelical would EVER vote for a RAT, under any circumstance. If they do, they have no values. I don’t care if the RAT claims to be pro-life and pro-family. They aren’t or they wouldn’t be RATS and besides with the way the committees and leadership is structured a “prolife” RAT is of no value unless they’re in the minority. Don’t be fooled.
