Are the poll results at the end of the article serious? Do that many American's seriously believe in Creationism or "Creation Science"? and is it true (as reported by the CBC) that 3 of the 10 Republican candidates are Creationists who reject Evolution?

Rob, a little context would be nice. The three candidates who reject evolution are fringe, 2nd tier candidates (Brownback, Tancredo, and Huckabee, who is a Baptist pastor). Tancredo is a loose cannon who will be one of the first candidates to drop off, and Brownback and Huckabee won't be far behind.
Then again, I agree with Kevin that a candidate's religious beliefs don't really hold much water with me; there are other characteristics I'm looking for in the candidate who will get my vote.
