Mormonism is not and never will be a mainstream Christian religion.
If Romney had not been a Mormon, he might have won.
One’s religion is not a deal breaker for me. Character and world-view are what matters to me.
Romney was thoroughly boring, without passion, too timid, and too liberal.
He was not my choice in the primaries, but I voted for him in the general.
I agree with everything you have said. However, the only religion that would be a deal-breaker for me is Islam...but we already have one of those, and that’s what we’re trying to undo.
I think a lot of people didn’t vote for Romney because he was a Mormon. Mormonism is a flaky cult that keeps trying to portray itself as mainstream Evangelical, but even its baptisms are not accepted by Evangelical churches (or by the Catholic Church).
It’s a very aggressive cult, however, and I think a lot of people were uneasy with knowingly letting a Mormon into a position of power. If it had been publicly acknowledged that Obama was a Muslim or Muslim sympathizer, I doubt that he would have been elected either...but the press was very careful to avoid that topic.
