OK, you've missed exactly half of my vital point. Go back over my previous post. Let's say he said the same flip-flopping things about immigration, about same-sex marriage, about taxes, about pick-any-issue you want to. You're going to then tell me with a straight face that you can trust this flip-flopper about whatever pet issue you want to insert in my example? He's going to be trustworthy with the exact track record I showed you?
I don't know about you, but I weigh "waffles" as part of character (like John Kerry, for example) & promises kept or broken is likewise part of that character.
The religious angle won’t matter if the country goes bankrupt for our children and grandchildren. How can I trust Huckabee when he expanded Arkansas budget from 6 Billion to 16 Billion as governor? And the democrats are all 10 times worse.
OK, no angle, religious or not, will matter if Romney becomes the Mormon mainstream pied piper to hell. Bill Clinton was a presidential role-model disaster for our young generation re: the scandal. Any president the voting block elevates to the highest role model position in our land accords the highest vote of respectability to the public aspects of what that person stands for. Illustration: If that person, for example, is a neatly tucked-away communist who's adopted a mask of "family values," & we elect him president, we are telling our kids that communism is OK to emulate. Furthermore, we are handing proselytizing fuel to communists everywhere. It would fuel their door-to-door boldness and other aggressive campaigns to be able to say, "See. Our respectable Communist leader holds the highest office in the land. Come study what helped make the man he is today!"
The same will hold true for the LDS monster PR specialists. It doesn't matter what Mitt would do or not do from the White House; the Salt Lake City HQ would push it into overdrive. Capitalization would be the operative word.
We need a successful business man in WH, not a tax and spend liberal.
Oh, you mean like the years he was on the Board for Marriott as Marriott was pulling in great sums of $ as being part of the porn industry? (in-room porn rentals) [Maybe as Commander-in-Chief, he could become the board member of a broader part of the porn industry if they promise to send more $ to pay off the national debt]
Instead of going into a long drawn out reply, let me just ask you one question. How popular was governor George Romney in Michigan and how much of his rule was directed from Utah?
