That sounds like a vague threat that I had better keep my mouth shut here on "Free" Republic... "or else" (or else I become the recipient of crazed spams by Elsie). I don't appreciate that.
Guess I better watch what I say whenever the code words "Mormon", "Romney" or "Utah" are in the thread titles, huh?
Any other Mormon code words I should know about so I can stay away from those threads?
Oh yeah... I've learned more about you alright. I don't know if that's a good thing.
It's definitely an "eye-opening" thing though.
*snort*
Good advice... thanks. Just wow.
O...
K...
May I address the King if I raise my hand first?
O...

Don't post to me again.
"All total...you probably have conservatively over 30,000 returned Lds missionaries to Utah alone from 2009-2012...most of whom...if they registered... did so for the very first time...So, if 55% of them registered, that's over 15,000 newbies...many of whom are 22 & up...[meaning thousands of these don't fit the "pimple popping" category] ... So, if anything, that 30,000 figure needs to be bumped up.
And of ALL Mormons, these would be your very most conservative Mormons...perhaps even 80%+ conservative in their socio-political worldviews. So, with over 15,000 of these returned missionaries registering to vote, most for the first time, we can safely conclude that Romney easily could have gotten almost 12,000 votes just from missionary returnees who came home to Utah 2009-2012. We already know that males nationwide -- non-Mormon & Mormon -- supported Romney more than Obama...
These returned missionaries would just about offset any "50-50" split among 18-21 yo Utah Mormon voters that you pointed out..."
You're just beclowning yourself at this point. Everything you just wrote directly refutes your original paralogism, which was:
"So essentially Utah's socio-political worldview is largely an "opt out" one; and even when 60% Mormon Utah gets one of "their own" in there...as was the case with Mitt Romney...it doesn't increase the turnout (or registration) -- of Lds ...or other Utah residents.Mormons apparently weren't inspired by Mitt anymore than they were McCain..."
So Utah Mormons weren't inspired to vote for Mitt, but they actually did.
Utah Mormons weren't there to support "one of their own", but Mitt added 20% to McCrisis' total in an otherwise national contraction election.
Mormons weren't inspired to vote for Mitt, but according to you, all these returning Mormon missionaries couldn't wait to get into the voting booth and snap off that voting lever for Mitt.
Right.
Have you ever had a cogent thought? Seriously. WTF is wrong with you?
Again, I've known your kind all my life. Undereducated yet verbose in ignorance; seeking affirmation but finding none ... you're a sad pathetic woman -- you believe you've been screwed over and abused by religion and politics, and thusly since you were treated badly, anything goes.
Get over it. Or not. Because the Schadenfreude is palpable...
Your discernment is so whacko you can't even get a poster's gender straight.
Give it all up in your guessing games.
