Old joke: The problem with Southern Baptists is that they weren't held under water long enough. :)
I have a number of theories as to how this happened. These include Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, their flocks, Ralph Reed, the Christian Coalition, Fox News, and overall complacency of the moderates. And then you've got the shrill Jeremiahs -- Fred Phelps, Randall Terry, Operation Save America. And of course, I can't forget the efforts of Rich DeVos, Jay Van Andel, the company they founded, Dexter Yager, and Bill Britt.
A good friend (and my spiritual mentor) sent me a link to The Yurica Report website. Specifically, the one whch mentions the Dominionists.
