Tucker Carlson's Triple Gainer

I remember in the early 90s it was quite a shock to some Republicans in Texas when the evangelicals took over the party. The prayer breakfast became a staple for the party, and a lot of people had trouble with the adjustment.
I mean, Jesus has always been important in Texas, but not in government and politics. I think that there were a lot of Republicans, especially in the cities, that were pretty pissed off that they got so easily ousted because they didn't know how to talk the Jesus talk.
