Ok, fair point.

I'm in the south, so almost all my personal experience is with the stereotypical Baptist type, and my comment was colored with that understanding. I realize there are more types of Christians, but I'm surrounded by the very stereotypical type. So I was referring to them for the most part.

And by "blindly", I mean they're assuming that the virtue of voting R is somehow mystically better than voting for someone who will actually not destroy millions of lives. The type I'm familiar with only knows Fox and just assumes anybody that even has to think about who to vote for is probably a Satanist, even though they don't actually even have a clue what that actually is. They're "blind" insofar as they can't see sexual results, they just know they get a god-shaped boner when they vote R.

I only broke out of growing up in it 10 years ago almost exactly (don't have a date, but it was someone this month). I knew he had made whispers of running a while back, but even though all I only knew him from at the time was that he was on home alone 2 and the apprentice and was some rich guy. I didn't watch the apprentice, so I didn't know much about it, but I just knew from tidbits that he was a clown.

I knew as soon as he made a peep I knew that he would be a horrible choice, while still working out how I felt about politics from the ground up.

I remember thinking that the "grab em" conversation leak was actually an instant kill to his entire campaign at the time. I still think it should have been, but I severely underestimated how stupid conservatives are.

I was still coming out of a fog of religion at the time. The world was still opening to me.
