Publications always need something about which to write, but in this case the topic being raised is becoming a litmus test for the politics of America.

Several of the state GOP platforms explicitly are theocratic in nature.

GOP darlings and frontrunners, like Rubio and Jeb Bush, will not dare to offend the fundamentalists, and thus are intentionally self-blind to the intrusion of theocratic thinking into the GOP.

Rubio will go nowhere because the teabaggers have already decided to throw him under their bus to advance the birther agenda. Jeb has a better chance in primary land but he’ll still face the problem of Mittens - you have to go so far into freakazoid right wing land to win the primaries that you can not get anywhere near the center in time for the general election. Plus not enough time has passed since W. He would pay harshly for W.
