Comments about ‘It's Utah's turn: Local voters favor Mitt and Obama, poll shows’

Romney is the only Conservative left in the race (with any hope of winning). McCain was trying to join the Democratic ticket only a short few years ago and has never been there when the Conservative causes came calling. I guess we will see if there are enough conservatives that will "plug their noses" and vote for a mormon conservative, or if they will "plug their noses" and vote for a liberal. Tought call for some.

Great news for Mitt!!!

Mitt Romney I know! But who is Barack?

Actually there are no conservatives left in the race (with any hope of winning). Romney is the most conservative of the bunch but I wouldn't really call him a true conservative. But we do with what we have.

In my opinion, it seems that the news media is determined to crown someone President before more than a small percentage of voters have cast their ballots. Mitt was ahead until the Florida voting, but the News Media would hardly mention it. The minute McCain gets a lead he is refered to in every venue as the "Front Runner". While Mitt had scored a couple of early victories, the News Media was saying he should quit. Their motto must be "Quit while you're ahead" but only if you are a Mormon.

The next round is Super Tuesday in which 23 states vote for Presidential candidates. They are trying like crazy to put out false polls which give McCain the lead. They are in truth trying to keep Conservatives from making a choice. Since this race began Mitt has won the Conservative Vote.

I sincerely hope that the Southern Conservative vote is not swayed into voting for Huckabee because he is a "Good Ole Boy". He has no chance of winning. Huckabee has condemned Mitt at every opportunity, but has said nothing adverse about McCain. Does he really think McCain will pick him as a running mate? HOW STUPID!

I was excited to read about this poll. Romney won Maine with over 50% of the vote. McCain was second and had less than half as much as Romney. The republican base is slowly rallying around our man Romney. Mitt is the most qualified of any candidate and his education and success record are unmatched by any candidate. He just needs more name recognition. I hope he does well in Arizona and California. McCain has a lot of opposition from the GOP leaders in Arizona. The Washington Post printed an article Saturday where the Chairman of McCain's local district referred to McCain as a liar. This man may not be as bad a Huck, but he would be a terrible nominee.
Romney '08

On the debates the other night Mccain and Romney called each other a liberal and you know what they were both right. The only true conservative still running is Ron Paul as a ten term term congressman from Texas. He has been a staunch patriot for following the constitution. He has never voted for a tax increase. He believes in a smaller government and that my friend is a true Conservative. He wants to stop the looting of the social security fund, and he opposed all the so called free trade agreements that lets other countrys dump food and products on us. Also he wants to bring the troops home, now. No more no bid contracts for Halliburton. He also voted against the patriot act. I will vote for Ron Paul if I have to write his name on the ballot. I will never again vote for the lesser of two evils. Because do you know what you still get? EVIL. He has taken 2nd in 2 states Nevada and Louisiana with virtualy no positive media coverage. Check out his voting record,and you'll find out he says what he means and he means what he says.

Romney was not a conservative LAST year. The guy's flip flopping purely for his Presidential run makes him either politically opportunistic the last 6 years in Massachusetts or in the primary this year

Ten years ago, if you had told me Utahns would vote for the former Governor of Massachusetts, I wouldn't have believed it.

America need to be reunited- Thats why this LDS conservative is voting Obama!

Of course "local voters favor Mitt and Obama"! Utah is one of the most liberal states in the nation. During the Republican Revolution, Bill Orton was still elected to congress, three consecutive terms.

When Dick Cheney gave the commencement speech at BYU, it was the Marriot School of Mismanagement that picketed the event.

Mitt Romney represents the worst in liberalism. His father walked out on Barry Goldwater's convention speech. His mother was pro-abortion. His wife gave money to planned parenthood. The Romneys are liars and liberals.

Mitt Romney himself voted for Paul Tsongas, rather than support Reagan's VP. Mitt Romney is a horrible person.

This is news? Oh the part about Obama is. In fact, it is like watching a little bit of water seep through the big cement dam. True, Hillary has been evilized by the right wing and the know-nothings and the jealous of her law degree and touch with fame, but Obama is an attractive, positive force for change and thus he will carry Utah. He might do very very well across America.

Oh Mitt? In a landslide? Really. Shocking news. In the Mormon theocracy a Mormon wins big. And you wasted ink and paper on this?

Gosh, some will call him a phenom, a meteorite, a... dare I say it, a god-send?

Outside Zion? Uh, the wind doesn't blow that way. Sorry.

Only Conservative Left -
I am afraid the naive neocon above is in for a rude awakening come November as America wakes up to the intense damage our modern American conservative movement has wreaked up our nation.
Folding one's arms and doing nothing while things go down the drain is a good indicator of how impotent blind authoritarianism really is.

Someone put a poll in the field in Utah with regards the republicans? Seriously?
This state is so going to give romney a coronation, is so firmly behind 'the right man' (it's NOT a religious thing, surely that's a coincidence).
Wow, and yet someone polled. Pigs must be flying, and i'd better buy a (wyoming) lottery ticket.

Keep sending those checks to Romney Utah. Come on. Together you and Romney can hit 100 million down the drain!

Mitt Romney refuses to rule out torture, specifically waterboarding, as a way we treat defenseless prisoners. Defenseless, strapped down. Strap them down and sadistically do with them what you want. Which Mormon doctrine is this?
Someone please let me know.

Now Christians know what to say and why. The word of the day is, "No." Just say "No." What would Jesus do? Torture? Please... where in the Bible is that? Or in the extra books that Mormons read and believe.

R U sure that Mitt is Mormon? Definitely not Christian.

We are better than torture. Yes, we can win this over the years by being smarter, quicker, faster, and more humane. And we will.

PS -- the CIA says that torture does not work. So which Mormon doctrine is Mitt following? Someone please lay out the doctrine?!

Does Romney Represent Mormonism?

Where in the Book of Mormon does it justify pre-emptive aggressive strikes, and occupation of lands?

Rather it says we should fight for our lands, our liberties, and our freedoms which justifies the American revolutionary patriots and the Iraqi people.

One to two million Iraqi people have been killed since the start of this war. At one point do we start calling it a genocide?

In the meantime, Americans, like all people who fear, gave up their civil liberties without a fight. The President has trashed the constitution and the Bill of Rights--those documents that Mormons believe are God inspired and sacred scripture.

Romney also supports the President's decision to borrow three trillion dollars to fight undeclared wars. Where in Mormon doctrine does it say to borrow to the point where our children will be in bondage?

Go Mitt.. McCain is to liberal for me.

Sen. Clinton has shown herself to be of poor character and judgment during this campaign and before. One lie I caught was the lie she told about working for the Children's Defense Fund out of law school rather than going into corporate law. The story she told years ago was that she was denied a job in any corporate law office due to gender discrimination. So which lie should we believe? It was her lack of judgment, and an inability to stand up for what's right--taking a safe and centralist stand--that were the reasons she voted to go to war. I don't want to trade one unethical, opportunistic person in the White House with the same kind of person which is Sen. Clinton. Sen. Obama is the clear choice for president based on his integrity, honesty, his platform (yes, I have read everything), his leadership and ability to get people to work together, and his compassion to serve this country versus Hillary Clinton's purely personal ambition. We will have a female president one day. But, it shouldn't be Hillary Clinton. Not that woman!

It's a sad day for America when you have so many people declaring they are conservative (aka resisting change at all costs).
What do you suppose it is that they are conserving?
