Well debtmaster let's take a look at the msn article posted in the second post of this thread. I know it's hard to read anything more than the CNN ticker, but let's try ok?

Quote:
Although Bush previously had made it clear that he was ?born again,? he was reluctant to discuss the details of his faith before he ran for president. That changed in 2000, as the Bush campaign highlighted the candidate?s religious principles as the core of his proclaimed ?compassionate conservative? agenda.

It paid off in 2000. Exit polls showed that Bush won 55 percent of the Protestant vote, which made up more than half of the electorate; among white Protestants, Bush beat Al Gore by almost 2 to 1. The support was crucial ? Gore won among every other measurable religious group, from black Protestants to Catholics to Jews to non-believers.
Baddog it's like you ask me to make you look stupid.
