Remember these people in November and 2008:

  • Sen. George Allen (R-VA)
  • Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS)
  • Newt Gingrich
  • Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL)
  • Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-AR)
  • Rep. Marilyn Musgrave (R-CO)
  • Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN)
  • Gov. Mitt Romney (R-MA)
  • Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA)
  • Sen. James Inhofe (R-OK)

Who are these people and what connection do they have to each other? They are all prominent politicians (some potential presidential nominees) and they were all speakers at the 2006 Value Voters Summit.

Much digital ink has already been spilled in coverage of this event. Here are some links:

Other notable speakers:

  • James Dobson
  • Ann Coulter
  • Jerry Falwell
  • Alberto Gonzales
  • Sean Hannity
  • Tony Snow
  • Gary Bauer
  • Tony Perkins
  • Alan Sears
  • Paul Weyrich

I blogged about the Baylor study on religion a couple of weeks ago.  Ebonmuse reviewed the study and doesn’t believe that it conflicts with earlier studies.  Also see this post (linked in Ebonmuse’s post) at Beware of the Dogma where they take a closer look and come up with some criticisms of the study.

What a game! Notre Dame beat MSU 40-37. :-( MSU played great until the second half and then ND stepped it up and took the lead in the final minutes. I really thought MSU had it in the bag. Maybe next week.
