Equating Christianity with morality is the major flaw in your thinking.

Two trivial things. 1: With low voter turnout, 51% of the population would be not only a landslide but the largest amount of voters in years. 2: Electoral college invalidates 1, as well as your original statement.
Now, the real thing. Just because 77% list themselves as Christian doesn't mean they read sermons each day like Bush. I'd list myself as Christian on a survey, but I don't go to a church on Sundays, nor do I think the Bible has anything useful to say about today's world. Don't make mistake of thinking numbers shape reality.
