My bet is it came from Hucabee.

There are parts of the demos and repubs that really go off the map. Repubs attacking repubs... like a circle set up for the firing squad. This won't be the end of it. Only next time it might be under the radar.

Of course, this probably beats the time I was in an LDS ward house years ago and the bishop told everyone how great a republican candidate was for the governorship, forgetting to mention the Mormon democrat oppponent. Politics and religion make for some very smelly socks.

The Attorney General is playing politics by not naming the actual person responsible. It would most likely casuse them to loose the New Hampshire vote.

According to the website opensecrets, Ron Paul has used Moore-Information. In the 2005-2006 cycle, Paul spent $36,000 on "Polling Expense" and "Polling/Survey." He's the only presidential candidate to have used Moore-Information. Of course, this does not mean that he's behind the surveys that were conducted. It's also interesting to note that Chris Cannon has used Moore-Information according to opensecrets.

She already knows who's behind it. This is a very calculated step. Sorry to Mitt's campaign, dealing with bigotry on every level. His campaign is deftly exposing the real america.

Shameful | 2:07 p.m. Jan. 4, 2008

All the candidate claim to be Christian, it would be shameful to learn one of them was behind this or some Christian group. Using lies and falsehoods to twist the truth. It may be typical political fair but to profess Christianity and then be have this way reeks of hypocrisy and overt sin because they should no better.

Not Deferred | 2:21 p.m. Jan. 4, 2008

Why do Vietnam deferments still get any ink? I wish I had a deferment available. I served a year there, it changed me some, but I hold NO malice towards Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr, Mitt Romney, or anyone else who qualified. I take no pride in my service there, other than honorably discharging my duty as an officer in the US Army. I hope the general populace can see beyond issues like this one.

Romney is probably behind the ca | 3:59 p.m. Jan. 4, 2008

I think Romney's campaign is behind the calls and that the calls are a political attempt by the Romney campaign to gain supporters of his campaign by pointing to other candidates and saying "they are attacking my faith." We have seen how Romney has used his membership in the LDS Church to his own political advantage and its obvious that he lacks integrity so it wouldn't come as a shock to learn that he is behind these calls. I have said this before and will say this again: "Romney, stop using my faith for your own political gain."
