Religion & Election Update!

From Suburban Messiah:

Since I haven't posted much on the Quail lately, I feel some duty to keep everyone up on my latest Religion & Politics post, a topic I heavily covered here last semester.

With Obama and Huckabee winning the Iowa caucus a couple weeks ago, there was wide speculation — before they both lost on Tuesday in New Hampshire — about their effects on the evangelical vote if they were to be nominated for the general election. However, then they both lost in New Hampshire.

In addition, I reiterated the importance of the Catholic vote. I also found an interesting article the amount of money being donated to candidates by clergy members; surprisingly, the Democrats, specifically Obama, lead the pack.

Enjoy the article, and let me know what you think here or on the site!
