In case you were wondering why John McCain picked Sarah Palin, this is from James Dobson’s Focus on the Family, Action<\/strong> website talking about the Values Voters Summit<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It feels like the “fix” is in. During the Republican Primaries, John McCain shunned the Religious Right who backed Romney or Huckabee. James Dobson and even the Pit Bulls [including Limbaugh] said they would never back McCain. As you can see in the video above, the Republicans threw them a large bone – Sarah Palin. It doesn’t make any difference to these people how much Palin is discredited, they are “values voters.” Those values are anti-Abortion<\/strong>, anti-Homosexuality<\/strong>, anti-Stem Cell Research<\/strong>, anti-Evolution<\/strong>, anti-Separation of Church and State<\/strong>, and pro-National Rifle Association.
