Interesting thesis. To make it fly, you'd need data showing Huckabee voters casting their ballots because of the "progressive" elements of his politics.

p>Maybe it's there, but the Huckabee voices I heard were talking about the issues where Huckabee was inside the "conservative evangelical" mainstream -- or they weren't talking issues at all, they were identifying with a fellow evangelical, especially against the likes of McCain, whose past actions and rhetoric suggested he had no use for them. br> -- Brad Bettin br> Melbourne, Florida /p>

Has Nicole Russell read the Bible's hundreds of passages about poverty and hunger? I don't think it's the government's job to alleviate these problems, but I sincerely question the familiarity of the author with her topic. Saying issues of poverty, peace and the environment aren't Biblical issues does a disservice to the scope of the Bible, methinks.
