i was just pointing out that not all of bush's support came from the dreaded fundamentalists. christians with more of an open mind also voted for him. i understand evolution is not a political issue.
there is another thread about what democrats need to do to attract more people, so i won't go into too much detail. but i think that liberals need to show that they too have strong values that can be backed up bibilically if necessary. republicans don't own god, but many of them can speak about god in a genuine manner. some are simply putting up a facade, but i don't think bush is. talking about religion and faith in the blandest way possible isn't very helpful to liberals, especially when universal concepts of altruism and stewardship shouldn't offend anyone.
