I'm guessing you weren't alive during the '76 campaign.
Carter took a lot of flack from many northern liberals (mainly supporters of Udall, Church, and Harris) for his overt displays of religiosity. Many northerners were in a tizzy, thinking he was a stealth version of George Wallace.

| -Frankly, Senator Obama, I do not want evangelical bigots voting for my candidate. |
