Ummm mainstream Protestants are pretty liberal. I am a Presbyterian and at my church there is an even split of Democrats, Indies, and fairly moderate Republicans and I live in Idaho. Evangelicals are the people that you are thinking of.
Evangelicals are the most vocal and politically influential of the protestant sects so checkmate.

The term "family values" is a code for conservative Christian values. Many liberal values (helping the poor, anti-war, equal pay for equal work, free speech, etc.) could also be seen as values issues.
