The Invisible Primary Voter: Evangelical Democrats | The Trail | washingtonpost.com

The Invisible Primary Voter: Evangelical Democrats | The Trail | washingtonpost.com: "Since nearly eight in 10 white evangelicals voted for President Bush in 2004, Democrats have been plowing thought, money and time into changing the story line. They have faith advisers, faith forums and faith strategies that show there is such a thing as a progressive evangelical. So imagine their annoyance when exit polls in Iowa and New Hampshire asked only Republican voters if they consider themselves 'born-again' or evangelical.

'Asking only Republicans about their religion shows that the media is still stuck on the outdated and false notion that evangelical Christians are the GOP's political property. No party can own any faith,' Katie Barge wrote at Faith in Public Life blog."
