Are the fundamentalists on the decline? Here is what an article in McClatchy says:
Today, their nearly three-decade-long ascendance in the Republican Party is over. Their loyalties and priorities are in flux, the organizations that gave them political muscle are in disarray, the high-profile preachers who led them to influence through the 1980s and 1990s are being replaced by a new generation that's less interested in their agenda and their hold on politics and the 2008 Republican presidential nomination is in doubt.
If I were a conservative Neanderthal, I'd be really depressed about this. The problem with the right is that they think God is directing them, so they they overreach (think Terri Schiavo). Furthermore, they actually believe that Americans want a fundamentalist Christian nation, when America is highly secular. Sure, people give lip service to conservative values - then they buy a Britney Spears album and purchase gory video games for their children, while clogging their arteries with fast food.
The truth is, people are sick of the scolds and just want to be left alone. All faith has been lost in a group that was silly enough to think George Bush was the "chosen one." The fundamentalists, on some level, know they screwed up the country by worshiping Bush, and this is reflected in their disinterest in politics.
Although, it certainly does not help when cynical phonies like John"Christian Nation" McCain and Mitt Romney are crassly bowing to conservatives. Watching these sycophants pander is enough to disillusion even the most loyal right wing republican. Is there a single candidate not made of plastic?

I read last week that the fundos are looking to run a 3rd party candidate, because none of the republicans are puritanical and fascist enough for them. GOOD! Their clown would never win and it would suck votes away from the GOP. Now they'll know what it feels like. The republicans salivated every time that pain in the ass Ralph Nadar ran for pres. and sucked votes away from the Dems. The past few years have been totally karma time for the GOP and the rapture right. FINALLY! Red V
