Some New Hampshire Christians don't buy candidate's excuse for losing


In an interview on Christian radio, New Hampshire gubernatorial candidate Gordon Humphrey blamed Christians for his loss two years ago. "If Christians had come out in proportion to their numbers, I'd be governor today," he lamented in "an explicit appeal" for evangelical votes this time around. It's not working. "He just sort of took it for granted … that he is the evangelical white Christian candidate of choice," Paul Nagy, director of the state's now-defunct Christian Coalition, told The Concord Monitor. Another political group, Christian Freedom Defense, endorsed Humphrey's opponent, Craig Benson.
