Christianist Democrats

This just about sums up the Democratic candidates' decision to mimic Bush on faith issues:

"One-third gets it," says a Democratic values pioneer, talking about the rank and file. "A second third understands that this can help us win. And another third is positively terrified."

The second third is the key, I guess. Obama is going to ride this, I'm afraid. (Hat tip: Mirror of Justice.)
