Religious right's influence may be fading
WASHINGTON, May 21 (UPI) --
Christian conservatives may be losing their influence on the Republican presidential primaries, party strategists said. "The era of the religious right being able to call the tune to which Republican candidates will dance is over," Republican strategist Rich Galen told USA Today. The newspaper said the Republican presidential candidacy of former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a supporter of abortion rights, gay rights and gun control, will put the once dominant Christian right to the test in the party primaries. Galen told USA Today that U.S. President George Bush and Congress' intervention in the right-to-die case of Terri Schiavo in 2005 was "a pivot point" for many Republican voters. A majority of voters disapproved of the lawmakers' actions in the case of the brain-damaged Florida woman. Mississippi Republican Chairman Jim Herring said Giuiliani's social views wouldn't make him popular in his state but they might not destroy his candidacy. "I really believe that the next president will be whoever the people think will best protect the homeland," Herring told USA Today.
