WASHINGTON, Feb. 24 — A group of influential Christian conservatives and their allies emerged from a private meeting at a Florida resort this month dissatisfied with the Republican presidential field and uncertain where to turn. The event was a meeting of the Council for National Policy, a secretive club whose few hundred members include Dr. James C. Dobson of Focus on the Family, the Rev. Jerry Falwell of Liberty University and Grover Norquist of Americans for Tax Reform.

The council’s bylaws forbid members from publicly disclosing its membership or activities, and participants agreed to discuss the Amelia Island meeting only on the condition of anonymity.

Both Mr. McCain and Mr. Romney have worked hard to pitch themselves to Christian conservatives — John McCain by delivering speeches at venues like Mr. Falwell’s Liberty University or a recent abstinence-promotion event, Mitt Romney by leading the charge for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage.

For eight years and four elections, President Bush forged a singular alliance with Christian conservatives — including dispatching administration officials and even cabinet members to address council meetings — that put them at the center of the Republican Party.

But in the aftermath of the stinging defeats in the midterm elections, and with discontent over the Iraq war weighing heavily on the public, some Christian conservatives worry that they may find themselves on the sidelines of the presidential race.

I, for one, will be watching this group of fanatics to see who they do endorse so I will know definitely who I will NOT vote for.

properly i replace into deeply saddened to hearken to on the subject of the Catholic Charities and Archdiocese of Washington DC, considering that i replace right into a former donor. I say former donor because of the fact they're going to by no skill acquire yet another cent from me. I say any church that tries to disclaim the civil rights of others could have their tax exemption status taken away and that i desire that donors to Catholic Charities of Boston and Washington DC will come across a worth charity to donate their funds to.

Currently I'd say they have to go with Romney. Mean, conservative, even fairly intelligent - which will be new for them.
