“One thing I’d have to say, if Romney were to ever get the GOP nomination, the Mormons would be hammered because the left would go after them full force.”
Don’t be too sure of that. Does the left go after jihadist muslims full force? Does it seem put off by the creep of Sharia into western society?
How many muslims are in the GOP? The left goes after anything GOP to make sure their brand, "democrat party", stays on top. If there was a popular muslim in the GOP, watch the media trip over themselves to attack him and his religion.
