Frankly, this Mormon crap where you claim people have said Mitt is not a Christian when what they consistently assert is that Mormonism is not Christianity is getting too transparent. You ought to be ashamed but of course that is incomprehensible to you. Mitt will not shame people into voting for him nor will he prevent Conservative Christians from rejecting him because of the cultish beliefs which he serves as a high priest (Melchezidek Priesthood, if memory serves to become a Bishop as he has).

Maybe you have been clear in what you have said. Others have not.

Mitt will never shame anybody into voting for him. The best he can hope for is to negate the natural inclination to vote AGAINST him because he is a Mormon.

I am increasingly thinking that will be impossible. I’ve already learned that if you are a conservative and a muslim you might as well just forget being a part of the political environment — heck, some people here think they shouldn’t be in the military or even be allowed to stay in America.

I’ll say that if we do a good enough job, we can pretty much guarantee that the only Mormons in politics are the likes of Harry Reid. But I don’t say that to shame anybody into voting for Romney, I say that because politics is not about electing Christians, it’s about electing conservatives. Mormons have been our allies on many issues of importance to social conservatives. They are strong pro-family voters, they are moral, they tend to support conservative positions.

About the only thing that would chase them away is an uprising of conservatives attacking their faith.
