An anecdoatal two-for-one for Hillary fans.
I was watching one of the local news stations last evening (forget which one,they all suck) and they had a clip of Romney in NH doing the ole diner meet and greet stuff.He walked towards one old guy and said,"How are you doing?" and he barely finished when the guy shot back,'This is one guy who will never vote for a Mormon!"

Romney said,"Ok,can I least shake your hand?" The guy shook his head emphatically and said ,"NO!"

So afterwards the press talked to the guy who said he was Democrat who would be voting for Hillary.

So there ya go...a great smackdown of ole Gelmet Head,and an endorsement for Hillary,all in one. :)

1. "...a great smackdown..."?

Based on what you wrote, it seems the guy is a bigot.

3. How so?
....because he doesn't like a person that believes in the Mormon teachings...like how ALL people of color were cursed by God?! :eyes:

5. Thank You....yeah I was interested in what the Mormons beliefs were at one time....

....read into their *Bible* a little ways and was literally floored by that revelation...when their flock...who I'd received the book from over the phone kept calling me to join their religion...I hit them with that scripture....they stopped harassing me immediately. :)

Peace to you as well. :hi:

2. Probably...but I still laughed.
Romney is so weaselly but even he hard time keeping that perfect smile going for once.

I can see your point.I'm still going to laugh at that moment though. :shrug:

11. I've repeatedly said,even to you,that I've been decided since 2004 on Kucinich.

The rest of your post is paranoid fantasy,something that really is getting boring.

10. I thought that man was ignorant
That is exactly the kind person that we shouldn't want endorsing any Democratic candidate.

12. The guy is a local oddball
If Hillary wants his support, she can have it. I have no use for anyone who uses someone's religion as a cause for riddicule.

Heck, we have a Democrat running for Senate who is a Mormon. I don't hear anybody making an issue out of her background!
