Heh, Republicans better hope that he is because I don't think anyone can unseat him for the nomination.

then why is his mormonism still an issue now?

Because it's something the media can use to try to divide their political opponents, conservatives.

The media lol


Cain and Bachmann would even acknowledge a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the first church to name itself after Jesus, is a Christian.


This is not some made up issue this is the religious right wing being itself

In an interview with CNN's Candy Crowley, tea-party favorites Michele Bachmann and Herman Cain repeatedly dodged questions on whethr they believe Mitt Romney is christian.
Cain said he is "not running for theologian in chief," while Bachmann said that "to make this a big issue right now is just ridiculous."
Crowley asked both candidates if they were aware they had dodged the question and both said they were okay with that.


"The Media" is exactly the only reason this is being pushed as an issue.

They reported something that happened - That's near criminal behavior !

"and both said they were okay with that" - that's right they both agreed they dodged the question. Truth reported, Rho upset-ed.

If you watched Cain and Bachmann react to the question you'd see the report was mild

I'm sure griping about the media after a day of Limbaugh, Huckabee, and Beck doesn't strike you as absurd but really they are media.

Frankly the press reported this and moved on quickly. I harp on it because it amuses me that the church with the best case for being Christian, that is the first to name themselves after Christ, is looked down upon by the others.


With Bachmann and Cain the real question is will religicons sit our rather than vote for a Mormon?

It wasn't a report of something that happened, it was Crowly asking a question to see if she could get them to answer in a way that divided the republican party. It wasn't based on some speech or official statement either of those candidates had made. She didn't say, "So, I hear that you're stump speech includes a slam of Romney as "Not a Christian", what's that all about?".

Candy is making news rather than reporting news.

Waah!

These two milked the Christian label every chance they got. The question was fair.

"The Media" is a cop out used by candidates who can't handle softball questions.

Q: Is Mitt Romney a Christian?

A: That's a question for Mitt, not me. If you'd like to ask me about my religious views I am happy to discuss them

End of story.
