In what has to be the biggest interview of Relevant’s life, Barack Obama sat down with Editor in Chief Cameron Strang. They discussed faith based initiatives, abortion, and his personal faith. This is amazing. Would Kerry, Gore, or Clinton have done this? Would McCain do this?
He uses phrases like “the sacredness of sexual behavior”. He “sounds” like an evangelical. Because the right has proven impotent in overturning Roe v. Wade over the last eight years, young evangelicals can easily see through McCain’s insincerity, Obama is primed to win this demographic with just a little clever positioning, as we see here. He’s makes it look easy.
Conversely, Dobson and co. just sounds shrill. McCain talking about his faith sounding like a teeth-gritting Daniel Plainview from There Will Be Blood. The religious right is over.
