Where did you get this opinion? The megachurches have multi-million dollar budgets, and a call from the pulpit can readily raise more. They are a huge source of "soft" money and a major financial supporter of right-wing causes. I have never heard anyone deny this before.




True, but do they weild more influence than a single anti-religion, multi-billionare admittedly set out to elect a president...

George Soros spent 26 million and more importantly set MoveOn.org metastisizing across cyberspace, raising money, generating over-the-top attacks outside of most campaign regulation. While powerful groups are admittedly a major problem in influencing politics, that a single man can wield so much power is more concerning to me.
