Sue Emmett, the ex-Mormon great-great-granddaughter of super-Morman Brigham Young, has given an interview to The Daily Beast that should officially mark the beginning of the end for Mitt:
...“Mitt has had people defer to him and not challenge him his entire life,” says Emmett. “In the Mormon church if you challenge your priesthood leaders it’s a very bad thing to do, especially for women. As the world can now see, Mitt has a very hard time with being questioned and criticized; he’s had so little of this in his life..."
...Emmett cites a bit of Mormon lore called the White Horse Prophecy...It suggests that Mormons believe a time will come when the U.S. Constitution is eroding and Mormon leaders will save it and usher in a new theocracy...
Romney has said that he considers the White Horse Prophecy just a matter of speculation by church members. "I haven't heard my name associated with it or anything of that nature," he told The Salt Lake Tribune in 2007. "That's not official church doctrine…I don't put that at the heart of my religious belief..."
But Emmett begs to differ. “I can guarantee you that there are millions of Mormons who believe this prophecy and see Romney as potential fulfillment of it,” she says. “As a Mormon, you grow up hearing about this prophecy. I think Mitt believes he has a mandate from God to become president so he can help move this along. I don’t know if it’s a conscious thought, but it's in his subconscious...”
“Every Mormon grows up with the idea that it’s OK to lie if it’s for a higher cause,” says Clark, who now works for a company that markets employment and labor market data. “But what happens is when this becomes a part of your ethical tool kit, you develop a condescending attitude toward people. Like Ann Romney saying 'you people.’ This idea of lying for the Lord gives you license to place people on an inferior level. It’s OK for Mitt Romney to ignore the principle of full disclosure because it’s in his DNA. Look what he’s doing with his taxes...”
Look at what Mitt (who, by the way, is a descendant of one of the original Mormon families) said about the White Horse Prophecy again: "I haven't heard my name associated with it or anything of that nature. That's not official church doctrine…I don't put that at the heart of my religious belief..." THAT'S supposed to be a denial?

Just as all the other BS you posted here was supposed to spell Romney's end. ::)
Four months, tens of millions later......Obama's lead is a a tenth of a point (RCP).

you do realize if you ran a decent person this would not even be a contest ;D

It may not even be a contest, come November. The mere fact that you're posting more gibberish about anything and everything BUT Obama's record and the economy pretty much speaks for itself.
