"In 2000, over four million Evangelicals..."

Why is the term "evangelicals" used so much now? I always thought that specifically was for people like Billy Graham that publicly evangelize.

Is it now a term used to describe Christians in general? Or has it always been? I was a bit perturbed at its constant use last night on the news channel because it seemed they were labeling Christians as some kind of radicals (not that I think Graham is a radical) as opposed to just normal people with Christian beliefs.
