Christian group plans straw poll, religion-and-politics faceoff
The Family Research Council is planning a three-day "Values Voter Summit" this fall, complete with a presidential straw poll and a conservative-liberal faceoff on religion and politics.
The council advertises the conference, Oct. 19-21 in Washington, as "the largest gathering of values voters from across the nation." It will include a gala dinner honoring James Dobson, head of Focus on the Family.
Other confirmed big names include council president Tony Perkins; Phyllis Schlafly, head of the Eagle Forum; activists Gary Bauer and Paul Weyrich; Robert Bork, Bill Bennett and former senator Rick Santorum. No word yet on whether any presidential candidates will be working the crowd. USAToday.com, Aug. 15, 2007
