Evangelical political hypocrisy is both amusing and jaw-droppy

From “Rational Irrationality” over at the New Yorker:

According to the CNN exit poll, twenty-seven per cent of those surveyed said that in deciding how to vote, the religious beliefs of the candidate mattered a great deal to them. In this group, Gingrich got forty-five per cent of the vote, and Romney got nine per cent—yes, nine. Another thirty-three per cent of those questioned said the candidates’ religious beliefs mattered somewhat. In this group, Gingrich got forty-seven per cent of the vote, and Romney got twenty-seven per cent.

I can’t be the only one absolutely fascinated at the prospect of a thrice-married adulterer who dumped one wife after she was diagnosed with cancer and dumped the other after she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis being supported by the “family values” evangelicals against a once-married family man president.
