Alex Koppelman at Salon (Feb. 27) tells of "a new poll handicapping the race for the 2012 Republican presidential race, and the results are fairly unsurprising. Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin leads the pack -- but just barely."
Out of those who responded to the poll, 29% said they favored Palin; 26% percent liked Mike Huckabee; and 21% would give their vote to Mitt Romney. Way down at 4.5% was Bobby Jindal.
If it tells us anything, this poll says that the Republican Party has fallen into a theocratic pit from which it may never be able to crawl out.
Palin and Huckabee are confessing theocrats, both having been "born again," and both claiming a "personal relationship with Jesus Christ," and both very clear about the need to incorporate their right-wing religious values into government policy and procedure.
Romney, being a Mormon, is just as bad, and if there is anything we do not need in this country is a ultra-conservative, born and bred Mormon in the White House.
Unfortunately, we have come to a place in this country where one's religion, while not a test or office, must be taken into consideration, because the religious fruitcake Christians/Mormons, etc., on the right have every intention of corrupting the government with their peculiar and debilitating claims to righteousness!
Bush did enough damage and it will take years to recover from his Christian chicanery. But these three - Palin, Huckabee and Romney, are worse. Bush played at being religious. These morons are serious.
That's what we have to look forward to in less than four years!

Again… voters will get what they deserve. I trust most that voted for Bush twice are living in their homes, going to work and have good health.
