Jerry Falwell, during the Reagan years, swore he was going to get out of the political arena... until George w. Bush came calling.
Religious Fundametalists always "swear off" politics every time they might face accountability for the politicians they put in office; such as George W. Bush and Tom DeLay.
The Fundamentalists will "take themselves" out of politics so they will not have to answer embarrasing questions about the results of the man (George W. Bush) they unconditionally supported (and continue to support) for President.
I guarantee they will come running back in 2012 when the Republican party comes calling again and they smell a chance of power in Sarah palin.
