ABOUT THIS BLOG

I shall post videos, graphs, news stories, and other material. We shall use some of this material in class, and you may review the rest at your convenience. You will all receive invitations to post to the blog. (Please let me know if you do not get such an invitation.) I encourage you to use the blog in these ways:

To post questions or comments about the readings before we discuss them in class;

To post relevant news items or videos.

There are only two major limitations: no coarse language, and no derogatory comments about people at the Claremont Colleges.The course syllabus is at http://www.claremontmckenna.edu/govt/jpitney/gov106-spr08.html

Spotlight on the Christian Coalition

How did the Christian Coalition go to far? This article, "Christian Coalition Shrinks as Debt Grows," highlights several of the problems the CC faced that caused them to crumble.
Ex. Controversial voter guides, pressure from liberal watchdog orgs, tax exempt status in jeopardy, investigation from the IRS and FEC for violations.
