Lee Benson: Unperturbed Romney is golden retriever of GOP

I don't care about his religion, but I do care that the man has lied and I do care that he changes his positions over and over on issues depending on the crowd he is pandering to.
We need leaders with conviction and Romney's only conviction seems to be that he deserves to be President. If the Republican Establishment had their way, he would have been able to buy his way into office.
I'm so glad we have McCain and Palin on the ticket, although I would have been most happy with Mike Huckabee. But the conservative talk show hosts spread enough deception about him to ruin his chances in 08. He was also too much of a maverick for the Establishment but while the likes of Rush and Hannity were gunning for Huckabee to help pave the way for Romney, McCain quietly slipped in and took the nomination...serves them right.
This nation could really benefit from this great leader.
It's a shame that the majority of Utah's vote based on a person's religion. They whine about Americans not voting for a Mormon and they vote for the same man mainly because he is Mormon.
We aren't stupid. It was this open hypocrisy that drove my parents from the LDS Church. My parents viewed people for who they were. They never just surrounded themselves with Mormons.
When my mother's LDS family rejected her sister for becoming Catholic, my mother treated her the same because they were sisters.
It's the Mitt's of Mormonism that make me miss integrity I witnessed in my Mormon grandfather. He was committed to the truth, even if it cost him.
Today, it's multilevel marketing.
Don't let the door hit you...
