The TP and evangelical line was somewhat blurred after the 2010 election.

There is cross over for TP types that are evangelical. The question for me comes down to how important social issues are for the said groups. The TP seems to on average care more about fiscal stuff and the social conservative types are more concerned with gays and abortion.

They both are conservative populist movements, just with different if not sometimes overlapping goals.
