Let's face it, though. The fact is that people who are willing to center their lives around a very malleable artifact (Bible) are, by definition, more easily conned than those who are less devout and dogmatic.
This is why Frank's father was so important to the GOP. The more of the evangelical "leaders" they could bring into their camp to spread the repuglican gospel intertwined with Jesus' teachings, the stronger the hold will be on the sheep.... the many, many, many voting sheep.
And this isn't something new. This has been going on for about 40 years. It didn't happen overnight and won't go away overnight. The best we can all hope for is that our fellow voting citizens who heretofore have done/believed what they were told by a preacher will at least begin to recognize that candidates who yammer about Jesus aren't necessarily the best politicians to vote for on election day.
