re: #87 Slumbering Behemoth

I am not entirely sure who this “religious right” is supposed to be here in California. The folks who came to the polls in ‘08 and passed Prop. 8 also gave the state to Obama.

I think the idea here is that the whole issue being in the news will stir up the religious right, and they’ll turn out and vote for so-con candidates in response.

Hard to tell. The religious right has an internal clock about voting and not voting that I don’t fully understand.
