Santorum gets the evangelical pooh-bahs

Mark Silk

Moses.jpgThat’s the word from the conclave in Texas. Will these guys have enough swot to move South Carolina evangelicals away from Gingrich? “Easy to command” was in the famous WaPo crack about the evangelical rank-and-file 20 years ago. As the next day’s correction declared, there was “no factual basis” for saying so then. Maybe there will be now. Or maybe, the pooh-bahs will mainly succeed in dividing the evangelical sea sufficiently to let Romney cross through victorious.

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
