Let's see. Do you know any Republicans? Have you asked them what religion they are or who they are voting for?

Did you then investigate to find out the religion of the candidate in question?

Since you obviously did that, would you mind running down the candidates individual religions in both the past '04 election and the one coming up?

I am seriously interested because I never even knew what any of the candidate's religions were other than an occasional Jew and the guy in the cult.
It's no secret that the stronger your ties are to the Church, the more votes you'll get from the evangelical population. Mike Huckabee is winning almost every state that has a huge evangelical population. People are voting for him because he was a former pastor and has strong ties to the evangelical movement. He is getting crushed in states that don't have that strong evangelical population. Mitt Romney won Utah with 90% of the vote because he is Mormon. If Mitt Romney was a devout Christian, he would be the Republican nominee for President.

The idiot comment was sarcastic. I just thought it was ignorant to call out black people for voting for the black candidate. Everyone does it. Hillary is getting huge support from women. The white vote for her in Louisiana tonight was just as biased as the black vote was for Obama. Hispanic cities and districts throughout the country elect hispanic politicians. Predominately white states like Montana, Utah, Idaho, and the Dakotas never elect minorities.
