Most Democrats aren’t familiar with Evangelical language–it’s distinct compared to even many of the, for lack of a better word, establishment churches. I can listen to a Bush speech and pick up about half of the references–one of the vital things evangelicals such as Lindy provide is translation into that frame.
Not surprisingly, I started to pick up on the differences by talking to liberal, some radical, evangelicals in Nicaragua and then noticed the same terms and phrases showing up in Republican language.
He’s very good at that and more than that, he can teach Democrats how to think about many issues in a different frame.
