I disagree. Although my “mormon” (Mormon) sample size is one, it is obvious that my Mormon is much more conservative than Romney by all measurements. He says Romney is no conservative, but he will vote for Romney come hell or high water, and is just kind of wishing that Romney will turn more conservative. My guess is Romney is the exception, not the rule, although I could be wrong.
Unfortunately , you are wrong.
Romney is a temple mormon, only 15% make it that level, one of the highest of the high.
Your friend may very well be conservative (there are conservative mormons), mormonism is not as conservative as it appears (however you might wonder why they are supporting a liberal).
I know this because my sample is hundreds.
As it stands now mormons will vote Romney at a rate of about 94-98% depending on the poll.
My mormon family and friends support him without question and 100%, they firmly believe that he is called to be president, it revolves around a prophesy of Joseph Smith.
