While Donald Trump's evangelical outreach continues to flail -- "We've gotta spiritize this country!" -- another election year brings about the quadrennial ritual of articles fretting about the need for "religious outreach" by Democrats. Remember, though, that Hillary Clinton's long history with her United Methodist Church and her involvement with its women's groups doesn't count, because mainline Protestantism doesn't count. "Religious outreach by Democrats" only counts if it involves obsequious overtures to white evangelicals.
