Personally, I think the paranoia surrounding evangelicals and their role in American politics is completely overblown. I know many have conspired that American foreign policy (specifically involving Israel and the Middle East) is directed so that everything is kept in line with biblical prophecy, but I'm doubtful.
I'm in close proximity to a slew of evangelical churches and have had contact with its members, and as a whole they are about as 'normal' as you can get in these parts. Which is to say, they may be certain the end is near, but they'd rather talk about where you got your shoes or Cornhusker football. Not about our impending doom.
