And remember, I'm understanding they will make Mormonism an issue at Convention. If they do that, it's "hands-on" for the Democrats after Obama issued a "hands-off". If he gets whipped with it, it will be his own fault.
Catholicism is misguided in some areas, like other religions, but they are mainstream as they also believe that God always was and was not a man who became righteous through steps and progression to become God. At the outset, Mormonism will never be mainstream, unless, voters put him in the WH.

Mormonism hasn't been hidden away and obscure. Prominent sports figures were Mormons. Prominent political leaders, businessmen, etc. Mormonism isn't going to hurt Romney.
