>>i view the entire and supposed christian right as neocons<< Many of the Christian right are paleocons who are appalled by what has happened under Bush. >>that is the support base that enabled the movement to gain power. they did it once, and will do so again and again and again.<< IMO the most likely scenario for 2008 is the Democrats pick up seats in Congress, and a more moderate Republican is elected president. The next four years are spent on post-Bush damage control.

Are you talking about the voters as 'Christian right' or the part of the political class which is Christian right ? The neocons are domestic policy liberals, and on those policies they get some support from Corporate America. The neocons ran a low profile on domestic policy in order for W to get elected. The neocons pretty much hid behind social conservatives like John Ashcroft so they would not be so visible. The 'Christian right' is a small slice of the electorate, under 10%. There are Christian conservatives, 'centerists', liberals who favor government help to the poor, social liberals, and libertarians.
