Is it really true that Romney, because he was business-oriented, proclaimed that he was more supportive of the pro-homosexual agenda than Ted Kennedy because Romney wanted to avoid being controversial?
Or, do you think maybe he was just being honest?
How do you think he feels about the Mormon tradition of polygamy? If, because he is business-oriented and wants to avoid saying anything controversial, can you expect him to disclose now how he really feels about polygamy?
How can you trust a man who is afraid to tell the truth?
B. In the debates, Romney clearly distanced himself from whatever he may have said in Massachuseetts, formerly. The effort I propose would continue to push him in the positive (i.e., in favor of traditional morality) values.
C. How Romney views "polygamy" is not a contemporary American issue, accept among Mormon bashers. Since Mormons tend to be Conservative, I am very unsympathetic to Mormon bashers.
If you are so concerned with denouncing polygamy, do you propose taking "Proverbs" out of the Bible--or reject it because of Solomon's marital behavior? This is all a non-issue, being injected into the campaign to divide us.
Why the antagonism to someone who is definitely moving in our direction? Might he back-track? Not if we do our job right. That is the whole point.
Truth is not divisible. The same principles that apply to business conditions that Romney understands and knows ow to deal with, are equally applicable to all other socio/economic conditions. What is essential is that we better hone our ability to make those points clear.
