As far as blame is concerned, it matters little to me who gets the blame in the end. If Obama gets elected we all lose. If Romney gets elected, there's a much better chance that the American way of life is preserved.

We DO NOT win with Progressive Republicans.
And let's look a little closer at his Mormon beliefs. Do we get to browbeat Sarah Palin over her beliefs, mock her, but we can't touch Romney? This is something I want know.
The last law is the "law of consecration." It requires the Mormons to ...consecrate yourselves, your time, talents, and everything with which the Lord has blessed you, or with which he may bless you, to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, for the building up of the Kingdom of God on the earth and for the establishment of Zion.
A couple of terms need explanation. The "Kingdom of God on the earth" and "Zion" mean, to Mormons, not just their church, but ultimately the theocracy that will replace the non-religious civil government. They believe, of course, that Christ will come to run this government, using faithful Mormons as administrators.
The pressing question for Mitt Romney, and for the Mormons who are supporting his candidacy, is: Would Romney consider the Presidency to be something that God had "blessed" him with, and which, pursuant to his secret oath, he should "consecrate" to his church for establishing a theocracy? If he is elected, will he kneel down and thank his God for blessing him with the presidency? And what is he supposed to do, according to his secret oath, with "everything" God has blessed him with? That's right: he is to use it for the benefit of the Mormon church.
And how convenient, Mike Leavitt is a Mormon too.
