Any evangelical religious leaders who support whisper (and yell) campaigns that Obama is not a Christian are the biggest hypocrites in the world.
By definition, evangelical Christians believe in spreading Christianity and the teachings of Jesus. The thing that they continually strive for is the conversion of unreligious adults who have secular American values. Barack Obama is just such a convert and under normal circumstances, his conversion story is the type of story that evangelicals would use as an example of something they are very proud of and happy about. But apparently politics is more important than religion to these people. (I hope they all lose their goddamn tax status.)
So, religious right, make up your mind. Do you want to convert Atheists and agnostics to your religion, or is it more important to be able to demagogue people? You can't have a main purpose of converting people, and then be total assholes to the converts.
This huffpost does a good job of detailing how, conversely, McCain would be picked apart for his immorality if he were a Democrat.
