	Canadian elections: why the Alliance campaign is in disarray
		While the Alliance continues to champion steep tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the rich and super-rich, it no longer is committed to replacing the current progressive income tax with a single, 17 percent flat tax.
		While some key Alliance operatives wanted their campaign to highlight several of the so-called hot-button issues in the party platform—denunciations of the Liberals for being “soft” on crime and child pornography and the like—Day, at least initially, resisted this course, probably out of fear it might refocus attention on his own religious fundamentalism.
		The Alliance's confused response to a sudden political shift has renewed ruling class doubts as to whether it has the political judgment and forte to impose a right-wing economic agenda, while keeping its social conservative followers on a firm leash.

		Now, his leadership under attack from within and the corporate elite signaling its strong disapproval of his performance, Day is trying to cling to his post as leader by even more closely identifying himself with the Christian right.
		In last November's election, the Liberals successfully used the Alliance as a right-wing foil, pointing to Day's reactionary fundamentalist views and the Alliance's advocacy of a two-tier health care system, the better to obscure their own right-wing, corporate agenda.
		Invariably, press commentators will seize on the Alliance's leadership crisis to argue that Canada's political system is returning to its traditional pattern: although months, if not years of squabbling lie ahead, a “moderate party” of the right will ultimately emerge, assure the press pundits, out of a reconciliation between the Alliance and the Conservatives.

		Notwithstanding these assessments, the first round of the Alliance leadership election saw Day beat both Manning and Long in Ontario (an upset, especially since Ontario is Long’s home province); and in the runoff 70 percent of Ontario’s Alliance voters went for Day despite Long’s endorsement of Manning.
		If the Canadian news media were behind the curve of evangelical politics, it is in part a reflection of the relatively short shrift they have given religion—especially of the evangelical variety.
		The research shows that Canadian evangelicals are likely to be conservative on moral issues and increasingly likely to be politically mobilized, but (contrary to some stereotypes) not right-wing on economics, race, or immigration.
