Religious Right

Danny talks with NPR's Lynn Neary, who attended a meeting of conservative Christian voters in Memphis, Tennessee today. All the presidential contenders from both parties were invited to attend, but President Clinton, and more interestingly, Bob Dole, did not show up. Lynn says that Dole, who said he had a scheduling conflict, may have stayed away because he is not terribly popular among conservative Christian voters...or because he may not believe he needs their support to capture the Republican nomination for presidency.
