Maybe you're not doing this, but it almost seems like you're trying to make a dichotomy between the loveists and the Dominionists, and implying that every Christian fits in those two categories. Of course, not everyone who self-identifies as Christian fits into those categories. Jim Wallis is just one example of someone who espouses traditional Christian doctrine and thinks his Christianity has very particular consequences for his politics, but could not be considered a Dominionist. On the other side of the political spectrum, see also George Weigel's "Religious Conviction and Democratic Etiquette".
