The REALLY depressing part is it's NOT a "tiny minority." In 2005, Gallup has had as many as 53% of American surveyed claim they are creationists.

The tiny minority I'm talking about are the ones who decided to invent the public attack on evolution and use it as a tool to gain power by controlling those 53%.

I really don't think it matters if some individuals choose not to believe in evolution for personal reasons. The problem is when extremist rhetoric is used to control the electorate and force things to happen like John McCain picking Sarah Palin as a running mate.
