FundamentaList Faultlines

Published on April 21, 2008

Nobody's doing a better job than The American Prospect's Sarah Posner at tracking the fault lines splitting the old Christian Right. Her weekly "FundamentaList" ought to be a must-read for political reporters as well as religion writers, and for curious conservatives as well The American Prospect's liberal base. This week? An upcoming, still-secret "evangelical manifesto" may provide a new who's who of power players; Mike Huckabee makes his bid for leadership of a new Christian Right by attacking the old Christian Right; meanwhile, Huckabee's old Christian Right financial backers are under ever-fiercer attack by a lion of the everlasting elite fundamentalist organization, The Family, Senator Chuck Grassley. (And don't just read Posner's FundamentaList; get the whole story of "Faith, Fraud, and the Republican Crusade for Values Voters" in her new book, God's Profits.)
