There’s a lot of cool stuff here, but I was surprised at how spread apart the events/stadiums are.

Obama Leads Among Christians

All types of Christians, according to a poll by the Barna Group, a Christian research and consulting firm. Obama’s adviser for religious outreach, Josh DuBois, e-mailed supporters with the findings.

According to Barna, Obama leads among 18 self-identified faith groups including Protestants, Catholics, non-Christians, athiests and agnostics and born-again Christians. McCain leads among evangelicals. Note: these descriptions don’t come from those surveyed; the Barna group asks a series of screening questions to get at the definitions of these tough terms.
