That is certainly a strong likely outcome. I just don't see Christian conservatives wanting to vote for a Mormon. I might be way off in my thinking, but I know many that simply won't do it because, to them, Mormonism is a cult that defies far too much of what the Bible teaches.
Some people keep saying this but the exit polls from the primaries just don't bear it out.
Plenty of evangelical Christians are voting for Romney. That is why he keeps winning.
Theory is nice but evidence is always more important.
Actually it is the GOP’s race to lose if they make the elections a referendum on Obama and his policies. Do the American people really want four more years of Obama? Are they still believers in hope and change or does the reality of massive debt, high unemployment, skyrocketing gas prices, socialist healthcare, etc. determine which way they will vote.
No Rep could have beat Obama in 2008 and certainly McCain was the worst possible candidate. Everyone seems to forget what happened in the 2010 midterms, one of the most historic in our history. The Dems were routed at the federal, state, and local levels. Do the 2010 midterms portend what happens in 2012 similar to the 2006 midterms that brought the Dems back into control of Congress?
Predictions of a GOP loss in 2012 are much too premature and more than likely, wrong. And this is without the growing economic doom in Europe, China’s hard landing, and tensions in the Middle East and on the Korean peninsula. And then there are the SCOTUS decisions on Obamacare and AZ 1070 due in June.
If Romney has all the political attributes of a Presidential loser, Obama has the record and problems of a Presidential loser—bigtime.

Your post defies logic! Would you actually vote for a proven socialist/marxist/communist who is strongly motivated to enslave all of us over a quasi-Christian cultist having strong moral convictions? REALLY???
If so, you just cut your own throat, and maybe ours too!
