You say don’t underestimate their abilities, I say, don’t overestimate them.
If Mitt was President for 8 years it would mean, for one thing, that Mormonism correctly took a back seat in his administration in at least the first 4, or he wouldn’t get reelected.
And if Mitt was President for 8 years, I’m pretty sure that the total number of Mormons in the US at the end of those 8 years wouldn’t be much different than if he hadn’t been president for those 8 years. That’s what I believe. Can’t prove it, of course. But it’s what I think.
There are reasons to be against Mitt, but Mormonism isn’t one of them (even though I see Mormonism as a cross between Scientology and Christianity and don’t have any intellectual respect for it at all).
OK. How can I say this any clearer? I spent the last post making a number of distinctions between the Romney campaign and Salt Lake City PRsters & its proseltyzing program. The "abilities" referred to the latter, not the former. I'm not talking about a would-be ROMNEY ADMINISTRATION when it comes to my comments about PR and proselytizing campaigns!!!! Since you seemingly still don't "get it," to put it another way, I'm not talking about what would happen in the Beltway!!! (It's what would be mounted outside the Beltway that would be of concern).
