The Christian right continues to exert power within the Republican Party.  They were instrumental in the selection of Sarah Palin as the VP candidate in 2008.  It will be interesting to watch if Sarah Palin is indeed the Republican front runner for 2012.  And if she is chosen as a Presidential candidate, would the Christian right also push for Mike Huckabee as her VP?  To be a team, it would have to be someone that shares Palin's views of church versus state, abortion, abstinence, creationism, homosexuality, etc.  Who other than Huckabee?

Well there's Booby Jindal of Louisiana, of course.  As Jeff Schweitzer points out in the Huffington Post artciles, The Extremism of Bobby Jindal:

"He opposes abortion with no exception for the life or age of the mother, incest or rape. Be clear about the meaning of that position. If a 12 year old girl raped by her father got pregnant, Jindal would prevent that sad victim from seeking an abortion. Like Bush, he opposes stem cell research, and supports off-shore drilling. Perhaps most disturbing in broad policy terms is his support for teaching intelligent design in public school. Jindal's position on creationism and intelligent design reveals a colossal break with reason that we cannot accommodate again in our elected officials. Bush was a disaster we dare not repeat, but Jindal appears to be nothing but W with Indian ancestry."

So maybe a Palin/Jindal ticket instead? They're the face of the Republicans.
