Do you think [Romney's Mormon faith] could have been a factor as to why a large number of Republicans/conservatives simply stayed home this past election?

I do.

I do, too. The "Mormon thing" was a big issue with a lot of conservative Christians.

Didn’t the states where some conservatives may have foolishly sat out the elections vote for Romney anyway? Romney was supposed to be competitive in “moderate” states but certainly was not. Thre wasn’t a single moderate state upset for Romney. There were few upsets at all in 2012.
