When I was watching the election results last night, they were talking about one of the dems that won a governorship I think in NJ. Anyway, they went on to talk about this dems strategy. They said "He talked about god and then traditional dem subjects such as healthcare" Great! I guess Christianity is becoming the litmus test no matter what party you are from....
