I hate to say this, but I think I agree with Vander Blubb here.  What's so special about not believing in God?

It's just nice to see a tolerant electorate that's willing to vote for an atheist, nothing more. It's not that I'd necessarily rather have on in office, I seriously don't care.

I seriously don't care about a politician's religion, as long as their political stances are similar to mine.  But to see people say, "I'd love an Atheist Representative" just for the hell of it doesn't make much sense to me.
I think you should be frustrated at the people who only vote for people who believe in God instead.

Uh, I'd say about 99% of politicians believe in God some way or another. 

or say so to get elected, because a clear majority of Americans would have a problem voting for an Atheist.

And Ronnie, why aren't you upset with Southern Republicans that would never...ever...consider voting for a non-believer?
