Actually, if every self-identified group has at least 30% who say they will not vote for a mormon, I’d call that pretty uniform. Why isn’t there a single group - like white women over 55, who are willing to vote for a mormon in higher numbers???

You also have a lot of people who say they won't vote for a New Yorker like Rudi. Me, I think it's a police state anthill. And others in places like the northeast or CA simply will not vote for a Southerner like Fred. You'd be surprised. Anyway, that's what they say to the pollsters or in private conversation.

You'd also be surprised how partisan they turn out to be in the voting booth. But in a very close election, these things can make a difference.

I just don't think they go and vote for Methodist Hitlery because their other choice is a Mormon.

As for me, I'm supporting Ron Paul. But I am looking at the rest of the field. RP is a long shot, however you slice it.

“I just don’t think they go and vote for Methodist Hitlery because their other choice is a Mormon.”

No doubt that the unbridled perception of an evil hilldabeast
will overcome fears of a cultist...

But there are two other possibilities:

1. A confused mind always says “no”
2. Abstention based on conscience

Neither would help Mitt in a general.

PS - I suspect we will see updated polling before long. The
mormon issue will be inspected very closely since it is
numerically, a fringe religion.

That's true. California will go to Rudy, Mitt or *shudder* HILLARY.

Tis true.
