You know, I almost feel sorry for the evangelists.
Remember ex-Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich? Imagine an alternate reality where he avoided prison and was the 2016 Democratic nominee. We liberals want the Supreme Court so bad. Voting for Blagojevich so we could get it wouldn't require holding our nose. It would require holding the ballot up against your back and punching it by stabbing yourself through the gut. That's the position the evangelists are in.
