Burning Your Bridges

The Southern Baptist Convention is expressing some clear displeasure at the Bush camp's efforts to use church rosters as part of its campaign. They maintain, and rightly in my opinion, that politics should stay out of the church.

I'm beginning to wonder exactly who exactly who are Bush's core constituency. He's alienated himself from small-government conservatives, fiscal conservatives, and now he's ticking off the religious right. Who's going to be left come November?
