I just want to make several observations.
First, polls don't seem to mean much, especially in how people identify themselves (i.e. self-professing Christian). The other terms don't appear to mean much either.
Second, I'll just say that real Christians don't support abortion, same sex marriage, and other issues that are contrary to the clear teachings of the Holy Bible. At the best, they would be play-acting Christians. Further, I really don't care who gets upset with this statement! Real Christians care more about what GOD and the Holy Bible says! Real Christians don't put EVIL, ABOMINATIONS, FILTH, AND SEWAGE ABOVE GOD AND THE HOLY BIBLE!
Christian is the wrong tag for folks who are IGNORING AND MOCKING GOD with their actions.

Real Christians still sin and err. Sometimes, quite profoundly.
Obama has been a churchgoer for years (if he hadn't, the Wright debacle never would've arisen). He says he's a Christian. Well then, in light of certain of his political views, he's a pretty bad Christian; but just where he stands in God's eyes, only God knows. "Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To his own master he stands or falls... So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God." (Romans 14:4,12)
Certainly we must use discernment when casting our ballots in November; but politics aside, methinks it would be better to pray for Obama than to condemn him.
