18. They could not vote for a Mormon
Thu Nov 8, 2012, 08:19 PM

I think many of them could not vote for a Mormon, and I know the polls always say that is not true;
only "10%" claim on polls they could not vote for a Mormon. But maybe they do not want to say they
can not vote for a Mormon. Maybe the actual figure is much higher and we are seeing that in how many voters
stayed home.

I have been reading and watching some right leaning media recently (I have not usually posted or watched anything
but I got drawn into it because of the election aftermath).

It is fascinating to see how the right is coming up with reasons for why they lost. At this moment Laura Ingram
is hosting Bill O'Reilly's show and dumping everything on GW Bush as the reason for the loss.

(I happen to think GW did have something to do with it. Not having him around may have made some voters
wonder why he was apparently not allowed on the Romney campaign trail.)

Also, on the left, Chris Matthews tonight said FL GOP Marco Rubio is already going to IOWA! LOL...

I would love to see Hillary Clinton be the 2016 Dem presidential candidate against Marco Rubio. LOL....
It would be great to see her become the first woman president.
