Check out this: Christian Coalition loses leader in dispute.

Here’s the gist of the article:

The Rev. Joel Hunter, of Northland, A Church Distributed, in Longwood, Fla., said he quit as president-elect of the group founded by evangelist Pat Robertson because he realized he would be unable to broaden the organization’s agenda beyond opposing abortion and same-sex marriage.

And here’s the part that makes me go “hmmmm”…

“To tell you the truth, I feel like there are literally millions of evangelical Christians that don’t have a home right now,” Hunter said.

Is the Christian Right’s monopoly over faith and politics in decline? Perhaps, perhaps not. This is but one event. Nevertheless, I can’t shake my feeling that a shake-up is imminent (or already occuring). McCain may have already sealed his fate by moving so close to the Christian Right, but there’s still time to change. I sense an opening, but I don’t think anyone in ’08 will be ready to grab it. Maybe 2012. I want to believe that there will be some big shift in political affiliation, but I’m still very unsure.

Are we in the midst of a realignment?
