How many Mormons are voting for Romney just because he is a Mormon? Are they "loons" also?
If the shoe fits...

Yep. I’m still evaluating the man, to speak for myself. I’m beginning to like what I see, though. Still, the abortion issue bugs me. I think he should have been publicly pro-life the entire time.

For example, they might say to themselves, there is all this ignorant intolerance of Mormons out there. If a Mormon were to be elected president, probably a lot of that would disappear. I'm sure many Catholics thought something similar about Kennedy.

As Mormon, let me answer this, Yes.
I will not vote for someone just because he is a Mormon.
Give me a man who lives his religion faitfully regardless of his denomination over a man of my religion ho lives it casually any day.
My problms with Mitt, speaking as a Mormon, are his politics, as for me, I like Fred Thompson.
But the "Stuff" that gets slung on any "Mitt" therad gets me going gecause people keep saying things like "Mormons believe...", "Mormons are ...", and "Mormons are not Christian..."
And all that "stuff" is laid at my doorstep because I am a Mormon, so I must protest being painted as a dastardly cultist bent on evil and mayhem. It gets old and I get cranky after some one keeps trying to tell me "You do to believe that now sit down and let me finish painitng you with tar..." /Rant
