First of all, thanks for using the "cult" label. It lets me know what mindset I'm dealing with.
I didn't say more or less, I said thousands and I know that is true. The subject of Evangelicals has been discussed for over 25 years now. Some people wrote about Romney's "cult belief" by talking to members, former members, officials, critics, supporters, agnostics etc. Some just opined on their own. Dozens of polls were done about whether one's vote would be affected by Romney's Mormonism. So your opinion that the "cult belief's" of Romney's were never "delved into" shows either ignorance or dishonesty.
If thousands of articles had raised such questions we would know more now about Mormonism than we did a year ago, but we don’t do we?
Depends on who you are asking and what they read and what the sources were. Dozens of articles have been posted here with the subject of Romney and/or LDS/Mormons, some vanity and some sourced, with thousands and thousands of responses. There been massive discussions on this board about the subject (I've seen some of your posts) so it's beyond belief that you contend that knowledge of the subject is less than a year ago. It's subjective as to what the RIGHT opinion is on the subject but indisputedly many opinions have been made. So your use of absolutes like "nothing" and "never" don't hold up to the simplest scrutiny, your logic...simply illogical.
The American people know no more now about Mormonism than they did a year ago, because the media never “delved” into it.
What church is an evangelical? And what does this have to do with which republican you are voting for, Senator McCain or Governor Huckabee?
