I know religion is in decline in this country, but you couldn't tell it by the government officials that get elected lately.

I think the opposite - it's when things are in decline, when they're perceived as threatened or at risk, that government officials often get the most strident. If religion were healthy, thriving, and growing in influence and importance in American society, you'd see government officials behaving very differently.
