Pastor's election-year crusade: 60,000 new voters in state "One hand on the bible, the other on the gun?" I don't like it. Texas had a constitutional provision that said that preachers couldn't get elected to the legislature. Good law, IMO.

The religous wackos want their place at the political table. As if they haven't already had their place at our political table for years? They were instrumental in the Reagan Revolution and have been a big part of the George W. Bush adminstration. Let em organize, it's their right to do so. It will probably create a backlash by mainstream Americans who are tired of being told what to do by religous conservatives. They're are a lot of moderate voters who probably don't bother voting (the 50% who don't bother voting), but when these religous types show up and start telling them how to run their lives, the moderates will get motivated. Ah, what fun it is to watch the political game.
