"So Obama would have 22% of the vote locked up right out of the gate against Romney."

Yep and I'm on of them. Don't say we didn't warn you ! I won't vote for Romney for the exact same reasons I didn't vote for Clinton !

Above all else, RINOs must be punished ! We are in a war for the survival of our country and Mitt Romney is the Benedict Arnold of 2012 ! This must be dealt with BEFORE we can win against our enemies the democrats.

I intend to write in George Washington for president and vote conservative on all other ballot measures.

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

Then how do you explain Reid?
I have a second cousin who is a politician in NV, he is a dem and lds.
I realize you said “most”, in my lds family they are all dems, but crossing over to vote Romney.

[troy McClure]

I will not vote for a Cult member either.

Mormons are a CULT plain and Simple, no different than Scientology.

“Tell the RNC there is no way in HELL you will vote for Romney. Lets tie up their phone lines.
Office of the Chairman

Phone: 202-863-8700

Fax: 202-863-8820

Faxing will get their attention as they will have to pick up each one rather than just give you the “Yada Yada over the phone”.”

22% won't vote for Bishop Romney because he's a mormon, I believe there's another 22% that won't vote for him simply because he's an ultraliberal, putting aside his mormonism. That spells huge trouble for Romney.

I fit in both categories.

[Wolverine]

Well, 2% of mormons wont vote for anyone but a mormon. (all exit polls e showing 98% mormons are voting Romney)
The bigotry is from the mormons.

....and 98% of Blacks will vote Obama....THE BIGOTRY IS FROM THE BLACKS.

[SENTINEL]

"Interesting. Americans loved Donnie and Marie.."

Singing songs and acting afool are much different than taking over a SECOND THIRD of national government.

[SECURE AMERICA]

I could support a Mormon
I will not support Romney a RINO............

[svcw]

So blacks and mormons as groups are both bigots.

Under no circumstances will I ever stand before my Maker and explain that because he was the lesser of two evils, I supported a baby-killing cultist who directly or through his organization proclaimed that:

1. There are more gods than the one God revealed in the Bible.

2. God is a glorified, perfected human being with a body of flesh and bone.

3. God is polygamously married to dozens (at least) of wives, and spends eternity as a type of Celestial Stud engaged in endless copulation producing countless spirit babies.

4. Jesus is the spirit brother of Lucifer.

5. Jesus is the literal Son of God who was conceived through direct sexual intercourse between the Virgin Mary and God the Father -- or in other words, that God committed incest with his daughter Mary.

6. A person is saved into heaven by virtue of their good works.

7. A person must accept Joseph Smith in order to receive salvation.

8. A person must pass in judgment before Joseph Smith before being admitted into Heaven.

9. A person must believe in Prophet Lorenzo Snow's famous couplet: As man now is, God once was ... As God now is, Man may become.

10. Non-whites are loathsome and cursed because of something they did or did not do in the dawn of pre-existence whereas people of European descent in general, and Mormons in particular, are white and delightsome.

11. A person must aspire to be sealed in a Masonic-based temple ceremony to his/her spouse for time and all eternity so that they may someday become gods and goddesses ruling over our own planet.

12. Wives will only be resurrected if their husbands call forth their Temple Name from beyond the veil.

13. Christianity ceased to exist after the death of the twelve apostles, to the point where all Christian Churches (especially the Baptists, Catholics, Methodists and Presbyterians) are an abomination to the Lord.

14. The Mormon Church is Christian.

Furthermore, I can't believe that any true Christian anywhere would ever contemplate supporting any candidate for any public office that espouses such horrible heretical and blasphemous doctrines -- be they Muslim, Mormon, or whatever.

In my case, if asked to uphold one cultist or the other, I will always support neither, no matter what the cost or penalty.

[madrastex]

Muttney or the Moron.What a choice!!!

"In my case, if asked to uphold one cultist or the other, I will always support neither, no matter what the cost or penalty."

Amen brother !

OK, but on the other side of the coin, I imagine because Democrats are more anti-religious, they would be more inclined to be skeptical of Mormons. I think it’s at least a common stereotype that Mormons are against drinking alcohol, so more liberals would be against them because they perceive them to be that uptight, religious type they generally dislike. More Republicans might accept them because they believe they have conservative political beliefs and that’s more important to them than their religion.

The new Gallup poll, conducted June 9-12, finds nearly 20% of Republicans and independents saying they would not support a Mormon for president.

he's an ultraliberal, putting aside his mormonism.

Romney's liberalism makes the whole question of his Mormonism moot. I wouldn't vote for an evangelical Christian who had these political views.

While I have voted for active Mormons for state and local offices, I doubt that I would for a Mormon as POTUS but Romney doesn't even make me have to consider this question.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

The number in polls has fluctuated between 20 and 25% over a great many years.

Seems stupid to start out with a candidate who alienates the conservative base and alienates a great percentage of the country.

But then I didn’t leave the Republican Party, they left me...

[unkus]

Romney vs Obama is not a choice. It’s tofu vs tofu. We won’t real meat! I’m not voting for tofu.

---

Obama is going to be re-elected.

I say again: I don’t like Romney.

[Tennessee Nana]

Mark Levin is havoing a rant about Romney attacking Santorum...

Mark said Romney should spend $15 MILLION telling us about himnself...

Mark suggested that Romney could say “Ann Coulter says that RomneyCare is Conservative”
