Great letter that makes several rock solid points. I hope that evangelicals read it and consider it carefully.

“As a Southern Baptist evangelical and political conservative, I am convinced I have more in common with most Mormons than I do with a liberal Southern Baptist, Methodist, Roman Catholic or a liberal from any other denomination or faith group. The question shouldn’t be, “could I vote for a Mormon,” but, “could I vote for this Mormon?” After all, Mitt told me there are Mormons he couldn’t vote for (I presume Harry Reid, for example); and there are Southern Baptists I couldn’t vote for (Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, to name a few).”

Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mark DeMoss, James Lileks

Hewitt: Hour 2 - Hugh gets reaction to the James Dobson threat to sit out the election if Rudy is the nominee with Christian publicity expert Mark DeMoss, and then covers the good, bad and the weird with humorist and columnist, James Lileks.

Let me put it to you this way, and, so you know, I am speaking just on behalf of myself:

As a Southern Baptist, I could no more support a candidate who is a known follower of what I consider a ‘doctrine of Satan’ than I could betray my country. And should my church decide later to support Romney, I would immediately leave the church and fellowship elsewhere.

I don’t see that happening, but I just wanted to let you know where I stand.

I don’t who Mitt Romney really is. To do a complete 180 degree turn on values just in time for a Republican primary season, I don’t buy it. I will judge him by what he’s done, not what he says he will do. I hope voters everywhere will do the same.

"So how did I settle on Mitt Romney? After spending months researching his life and his record, and hours with him (and his wife and staff) in his home, his office and on the road..."

Unless he spent months researching all the other candidates, and spent hours with them in their homes, offices, and on the road....I'd say we have a biased man looking to support his guy. I wonder what his opinion would be if he spent the same kind of time and effort getting to know the other candidates?

I can’t support any candidate who’s religion is a cult. I can’t, and neither should evangelicals.

To: Spiff; doug from upland
It blows me away that there are people here that would rather vote for Clinton than Romney. I can understand on the DU, but here? As Doug from Upland would say, defeating Hillary must be our Manhattan Project. I think Demoss makes a compelling argument as to how we should do that.
