Why is it that 4 million evangelical Christians decided the election?

From day one every poll I have seen people gave terrorism, Iraq and the economy as the main issues in this election. Now all of a sudden the exit polls say it was gay marriage that did it. The exit polls appear to be totally wrong on the numbers why would anyone believe that part of it. The news whores are buying the Republican spin about the gay issue. Why couldn't it be that the SBVT made 4 million people vote for Bush? Or the lies the NRA put out made 4 million votes for Bush? Could it be that the Republicans have put this one out to split the Democrats? Didn't Hitler do the same thing by blaming the gays and the Jews for all of Germany's problems? I am not gay but I voted against the gay marriage amendment in Ohio. This gay thing just isn't logical to me, I don't believe everyone in Ohio came out to vote on the gay amendment then just happened to vote for Bush while they were there.

1. because instead of addressing the problems

the Democratic party brought out some lame weak-ass shit. We need to fix this party or disband it. I leaning toward the latter.

2. I don't think you got my point. I don't believe the gay marriage

issue was the deciding issue in this election. I think that is the spin the Republicans have put on it to split the Democrats and the news media has fallen for it hook line and sinker. I would say the SBVT and the other dirty tricks were the deciding factors. Last night I heard a Republican say 55000 more black voters came out to vote in Cleveland than in 2000 and according to him they all voted for Bush because of gay marriage, I just don't buy that BS! So,I guess the whole mess should be blamed on the blacks and the gays!

Much nicer for the newsguys to use than "BBV".
