Peter Beinart of The New Republic can prattle on all he wants, either alone or in groups, about what he thinks it'll take to revive the Democratic Party, but nothing is going to work as long as Republican image-massagers continue to sell the message that voting against a Republican candidate is voting against God -- a message some people clearly take quite literally.



The mind reels. A large chunk of Bush's base doesn't think he's godly. They think he's God.
