This is what I have said. When we repeat the Dem propaganda about us and endlessly try to reassess ourselves in public, we are actually repeating the charges and making them stick. Cut it out, everybody. Talk about it in private with fellow Republicans but not out here where even extragalactics are reading it.
How many evangelicals simply wouldn’t vote for a Mormon? I was very surprised that many conservative Christians I know were just as biased against Romney as the liberals I know. They all seemed to think that coffee would be outlawed and we would all be forced to wear magic Mormon underwear. A lot of very irrational prejudice on both sides from people that I thought were relatively rational.
