If you look up the two terms "Evangelical Christians" and voting bloc" you will find them linked in a variety of articles as a potent force in politics, one that candidates take seriously as exactly that- a group to be wooed based on their common interest and goals.

Candidates take the Jewish lobby and the black lobby just as seriously as they do any groups. They are certainly potent forces in politics. They are organized voting blocs.

Personally, I'm not aware of the organized christian lobby that is tied to the GOP. And if it exists, it never tried to recruit this christian.

The Vagina Monologues championed sex between an adult and a teen as some sort of awakening. It's called normalizing the perverse through art. What purpose it serves, I couldn't tell you.
