Mitt Romney, Republican candidate for President, is a Mormon. Anyone who cares about the campaigns at this point knows that, it’s not news. It is, however, sparking a lot of discussion. Many Christians like his political views, but wouldn’t vote for him because he’s not a Christian. I wouldn’t vote for him, but not because he’s a Mormon, I wouldn’t vote for him because he’s another George Bush neo-conservative who would do little to further Conservative ideals. The fact that he worships a false god, an exalted man who resides on a distant planet called Kolab, who’s son “Jesus” is the spirit-brother of Lucifer doesn’t bother me politically. I grieve for his soul, and pray that he repents and is saved, but his paganism is no more threatening to me than is the paganism of any of our other politicians.
It’s all just hypothetical anyway. I don’t believe for a minute that he’ll come anywhere close to being President. At the age of 29, I’ve been calling elections since I was in High School. I knew in 1992 and 1996 that Clinton would be President. I knew in 1999 that GW Bush would win, and that was back when he was snubbing debates and John McCain was the favorite. I knew in 2004 that he’d be reelected. I am certain now that Hillary will finish off nearly three decades of the Bush-Clinton dynasty.
Unfortunately, you are probably correct in your prediction. And my guess is that she will have Pelosi and Reid to do her bidding which means only really bad news for America — if you like freedom.
The only hope I have for that election is that something really, really major will happen between now and then — because if it doesn’t, there’s almost no chance that any Republican can win. Bush is bringing the entire party down way too much right now.
I’m just about ready to give up. If elections are this predictable, what is the incentive to participate in them? It just makes everything look like a big show, not an exercise in freedom.
Maybe I’ll just join Fred in Mexico. Then again, it won’t be long and they’ll be a state too.
And then you hear stories of them excluding Ron Paul “by accident, oops, sorry” from the polls of who won the debates and who was leading in the public opinion. The only viable Constitutionalist left in the Republican party and they snub him so people won’t be able to hear what he has to say. Doubleplus good!
He’s the only chance the Republicans have for my vote in November 2008.
