This article on NPR the other day really surprised me:

Understanding the Gospel According to Huckabee

The reporter stopped people on the street and read (or played, I'm not sure which) bits of Huckabee's speeches in which he made biblical references.

The reporter than asked the people if they understood the references. Almost none of them did. One woman got all of them, and a few kind-of-sort-of got one or two.

I knew all of them. How many do you know?

I got them all, which should not surprise anyone. I am not a Huckabee supporter, though.

Huckabee scares me s***less. I was just really surprised at how few people got what are, to me, fairly straightforward and simple biblical references.
