Their lukewarm support for John McCain in 2008with many staying home on Election Day and upwards of 30 percent of their 18-29 year-olds casting votes for Obama (Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research)helped give the White House to the Democrats. So ... contrary to what we have been told by certain forum members, perhaps it wasn't the catholic vote that put O in office but the non vote of evangelicals.
This election year, we need to ban together and vote O out of office!

Evangelicals have always considered Mormon religion very different from their own, but sometimes for the wrong reasons. For example, they typically protest that Mormons believe in salvation by good works. Some Mormons do indeed believe this, just as many Catholics and some Protestants believe they will be saved by being good Christians. Yet the Book of Mormon teaches salvation by Christs work of grace: There is no flesh that can dwell in the presence of God save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah (2 Nephi 2:8). The Catholic church is the same, they say that Mormonism is a non-Christian religion, yet the media is always separating the Conservative voting Evangelicals from the Christian herd, as though they are not mainstream.
Just about every Mormon involved article uses that strategy.

Mormons believe that one’s salvation is based on such good works as baptism, good deeds, missionary work, and following Mormon teachings. In The Articles of Faith, by James Talmage, justification by faith in Jesus Christ is called a “pernicious doctrine” twice and he states that it has been “an influence for evil.” (pp. 107, 480) Bruce McConkie once stated at Brigham Young University that a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is “improper and perilous” (Church News, March 20, 1982, p. 5)

The Regime's in-house polls have got to be causing a great deal of consternation among the assorted extra-Constitutional czars that Bozo brought into the White House. Those numbers are extremely bad. Insiders say the POTUS has only a 31% approval rating!
It's time for all conservatives to get as many people motivated and educated how to vote for America.

If Evangelicals vote for Romney in greater numbers than for McCain in 2008and it appears that they mightit wont be the first time that Christians voted for an American president who was less than orthodox. After all, George Washington was a deist who usually referred to the deity in vague and impersonal terms. Thomas Jefferson believed the doctrines of the Trinity, atonement and original sin were essentially pagan, and rejected the possibility of miracles or resurrection. John Adams also denied the Trinity, along with most orthodox Christian doctrine, while holding to a Stoic-like resignation to fate. Lincoln and his wife attended séances, and William Howard Taft was a Unitarian who rejected the deity of Christ. Christians who voted for these presidents showed they were looking for a Commander-in-Chief, not a theologian-in-chief. In this approach they echoed Martin Luther, who reputedly said, I would rather be governed by a wise Turk than by a foolish Christian. what a load of crap.....all easily refuted.and btw...until 1836 Presidents were decided by electors appointed by state legislators...not a popular vote
my kin did not vote for Lincoln...I can tell ya that
who writes such crap

Today’s “history-making announcement” may spur many who had planned to stay home to go to the polls to make their JUST SAY NO! heard.
