I once had respect and admiration for southerners. I would gladly vote for president candidates from the south. Now that I have been fully exposed to their anti-Mormon bigotry (not all of them, but a substantial number of them) I doubt that I will ever support a southerner for president again.

Rewarding bigots with my vote just isn't in the script anymore.

So now Mitt supporters have sunk so low as to associated bigots with Fred?!

You guys are pathetic.

What, did you run out of anything with any real merit to attack Fred on?

Speaking of bigotry!

So if I follow you, people from the South are automatically ruled out because you have heard anti-Mormon comments from other people from the South? That's regional bigotry if I've ever heard it.

Painting with a broad brush is a simple excuse JC, indeed it is the cowards excuse, one I would expect from a Democrat.

I have seen a few anti Mormon posters here, but the bulk, including many of us Southerners, just simply see Mitt for what he is POLITICALLY, a moderate at best politician wearing a conservative costume trying to win votes.

I guess I should expect such a lame response from one trying to tout Mitt Romney on the best CONSERVATIVE site in the web, but I guess I was too optimistic.

BTW, painting Southerns with such a brush is bigoted.

Good for the goose, JC, good for the goose...

“Now that I have been fully exposed to their anti-Mormon bigotry...”

Mormonism is a cult and not true Christianity. It is that simple. Don’t expect Southern Evangelicals to support a cult. Because it masks inself as “Christian” that makes it more insidious than the wackos in “Scientology.” Mormonisn is chocolate covered poison.

Jospeh Smith, the founder of Mormornism, was a 19th Century David Koresh.

I've known Seventh Day Adventists and Mormons (fine folks :) et al, over the years.
Most just ignore, their antagonists' stupidity / lack of intellect.
They seemed to understand such "small minds").

Who knows?...Most of these Anti-Mormon comments (morons), may just be ploys for sympathy.....or maybe; something much more sinister.

It is not bigoted to speak the truth. My daughter was a Mormon for 8 years. I know quite a bit about the inside workings of that church. It is not a Christian church by any objective theological measure, and potential voters have a right to be informed about that.
