re: #237 Charles

Most of the leading GOP politicians and pundits are appearing at the Values Voter Summit this weekend, by the way.

The GOP is beholden to religious right more than ever. They clearly believe this is their only route back to power — to court fundamentalists who scorn the very concepts on which America was founded.

For me, this was the straw on the camel’s back.

I skimmed over Mitt Romney’s speech, and didn’t notice any of the social conservative-style stuff in there.
