The answer is a qualified yes. The ultra right wing of the party or the religious right, comprised of mostly "born again Christians" has ruined the Republican Party. The party is bought and paid for by these people. If a Republican candidate is not pro-life, then his or her chances of being elected to a high office is greatly reduced.
What happened to the separation of chuch and state? Religious freedom is the freedom to worship as you choose. It also includes the freedom to be an Atheist if you choose to not worship. What are the chances of an Atheist or Agnostic becoming president? Zero to none I think.
After the complete disaster of the George W. Bush presidency, I can't believe a Republican will be able to get elected for quite some time. This is good for the Democrats or even Mickey Mouse if he chooses to run. The pendulum is finally going to drift to the left where it belongs. Maybe we will have a chance re-join the ranks of the civilized world? No more starting wars under false pretenses! Is this wishfull thinking on my part?
