Conservatives Against Intelligent Design:

Conservatives Against Intelligent Design (CAID) was founded to give a voice to Republicans, Independent Conservatives, and Libertarians across the country who stand opposed to the teaching of ‘intelligent design’ and other forms of creationism in the classroom. In recent years Republican legislators at all levels of government have authored, sponsored, and voted for various anti-evolution bills with perceived immunity, confident that those who vote for them are creationists like themselves. CAID is intended as a wake-up call to these legislators, to remind them that the teaching of evolution is not a partisan issue, but rather one of the separation between theology and science.

But is it too little too late for academic conservatives to actually take back their party? Or will the lure of cheap votes from the religious right be too much temptation to resist? Certainly there are those in the Democratic party also asking how can we get those cheap votes, which doesn't give me much hope for either side or any candidate...
