The Carpetbagger notes that the Christian Coalition is now basically bankrupt, their organization hollow and extraneous. But don't pop the bubbly just yet -- there's a reason the Christian Coalition is dying and it's not because they lost. iIt's because they won. Having integrated the nation's churches with the Republican majority, having convinced Karl Rove that his richest source of voters lay among evangelicals, and having elected a fair number of space cadet politicians more likely to revere the Cross than the Constitution, there's no longer a reason for a massive group like the Christian Coalition to exist on the outside, what mattered about them was long ago ushered into the inside.
