[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is but it also isn't. Don't forget the megachurch people and [b]the people who live in the suburbs or exurbs and who are afraid to come into the city[/b].[/quote]

Huh? Why are you equating fear of going into the city with being conservative? That makes no sense.

Also, where are there actual megachurches in MoCo? WaPo did a list of the largest churches in the DC area in 2014 and no MoCo churches made the list. [/quote]

Agree.  That’s ridiculous.  What, so no conservative-leaning fed employees in DC?

And I can’t think of a single megachurch in a 10 mile radius of my neighborhood.  [/quote]

There are a fair number of conservative federal employees, I don't know why, but they exist and my dh works with them in suburban Maryland. And I find it strange that someone thinks that all DOD and Pentagon and military staff are "liberal" because they are feds too.

Montgomery County megachurch that just had a huge child sexual abuse scandal. Was all over the news, not sure how you all missed it. 
So, list of megachurches in MD: http://hirr.hartsem.edu/cgi-bin/mega/db.pl?db=default&uid=default&view_records=1&ID=*&sb=4&State=MD

I hate mega churches, and much more traditional (and liberal) and would imagine many people in the DC area, would prefer to go to a non megachurch.

The are more Democrats and liberals in MoCo than VA but MoCo is not super leftist, if all the people I see driving around with "pray the rosary" and "prolife" stickers are any indication.
