I agree with Maher. I would never vote for a nut case like Romney or Huckabee/Palin/any-of-the-other-fundie-shithead.
An interesting question is how many of them REALLY believe this stuff vs. how many of them play the role to appeal to certain voters. I'd be astonished if Bush or Palin knew even a fraction of what was in the Bible. Bush probably thinks the Holy Spirit is the wine served at communion.
