I'm not sure if it was clear that they were the largest group in the telephone 
poll (unless I misunderstood).  They may also have been the largest in the 
Internet group as well, but that's not the point.

If being the largest group doesn't make one mainstream, what does?

I believe that in polls, a majority of Christians self-identify as liberal or 
progressive, though you'd never think that from the news.

On the other hand, the real majority doesn't fit into these silly ideological 
labels.

>From Zogby:

'... 42 percent of voters cited the war in Iraq as the "moral issue" that most 
influenced their choice of candidates, while 13 percent cited abortion and 9 
percent same-sex marriage. Asked to name the greatest threat to marriage, 31 
percent said "infidelity," 25 percent cited "rising financial burdens" and 22 
percent named same-sex marriage.'

Are those liberal or conversative opinions?  Or sumpin' else?
