A New Award

I would suggest a “Some Of Our Best Friends” Award for those blogs or political organizations that partly depend on evangelical votes or money, but in fact feature few if any evangelicals.

They can be relied on to say, “Some of our best friends are evangelicals. . . ” but can never seem to find one to exercise genuine leadership.

For example, is there an actual evangelical who writes for NRO’s (very excellent and informative group blog) the Corner? As the 2008 primaries showed many, many conservative voters are evangelicals (not all evangelicals of course are political conservatives, but most are) . . . but I cannot recall one who regularly writes on the Corner. By my count there may be more atheist/agnostic writers there than evangelicals. Given the demographics of the right/conservatism isn’t that a bit odd?
