Many church members wanted to vote for a candidate who would support the poor.
However, they ended up voting for a candidate who would not support the poor.
I guess that these people might learn not to trust their church on political matters and to research the candidates themselves.
I see nothing bizarre here, politicians often climb up on the religion soap box and use church as a way to gain votes. What I find bizarre is the politicians who want to do away with the very social programs Jesus would've supported, and screaming to all who will listen, " Christian family values and morals!!". Thats bizarre to me.
