Do Political Parties Matter?

February 8th, 2008 by Joe Ciccanti

I came across an interesting article about who many Christian voters are support:

“A surprising new survey finds that more born again Christian voters said they would support a Democratic candidate than a Republican candidate, breaking the long tradition of born-again support for the GOP. The new Barna study shows that if the general election was held today, 40 percent of all born again adults who are likely to vote in November would choose the Democratic candidate, and only 29 percent would choose the Republican candidate. The remaining 28 percent are currently unsure whom they would support, preferring to vote for a specific candidate rather than strictly along party lines. If the election was held today and all the candidates from both parties were on the ballot, the frontrunners among born again voters would be Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.), favored by 20 percent of born again likely voters; Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), favored by 18 percent of voters; and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee with 12 percent. No other candidate reached double figures. 30 percent of born again likely voters said they are still undecided as to who to support…”

While it does seem surprising that Christians would vote for Hillary, the overall issue in this country and the rest of the world is not Republican vs. Democrat. Because there are Christians who are Democrats and non-Christians who are Republicans. So it isn’t Republican vs. Democrat, but rather morals vs. decadence; good vs. evil—what direction they will take this country. Nonetheless I am curious if any Christian voters around here support Hillary Clinton.

    Surprising and not believable but to answer the title heck yea political parties matter. That’s the reason our country is the way it is. All the congress does is bickers and complains back and forth. They won’t pass a bill b/c it’s republican and visa versa. We just need one party to take control and get this country back on course and those parties aren’t the sickening democrats and republicans. It’s not even the independents. None of them care for this country and its people.
