Their hair stood on end. They were groaning and cursing. With pain in their eyes and furious looks on their faces, they were crying out for their mothers to help them."

Evangelicals' political clout wanes

Politics – Evangelicals no longer seem to be the monolithic voting bloc they were a few years ago.
