Well, ignoring the Mormon-baiting tone for now, what, exactly, does that claim have to do with serving as president? I mean, even if it is exactly as you say, why should that keep someone from voting for Mitt?

In this instance, it addresses the poor race doctrine of Mormonism that Romney will have to defend. But in general, Mormonism has many far fetched claims that Romney will be repeatedly be called on to defend.
A catholic has to defend or condemn the abortion position of the Pope, as well as pederasty by priests, and a host of other issues. With Mormonism, you open an even more complicated Pandoras box of issues. Now, in an era when presidential elections are being won by 1%, AND Romney is by all rights a marginal candidate, do you really want to go down this road?
I have many other objections, search my name and you will find them.
