Romney's Religion Speech

[CSpindizzy]

Anyone watching this? Thoughts?

Sounded like pandering to the Christian Conservatives to me.

It was as bland as he is.

 

[CSpindizzy]

I don't think he convinced who he was speaking to. But he did manage to make a speech that the Muslims in this country would love. He also seemed to contradict himself on one hand saying he'd stand on his religious beliefs and then on the other saying there was no role for religion in his decisions running the country. Mixed bag. At the end of the day he probably rallies his supporters but distanced himself from the ones he was trying to appeal to.

I think it was a bunch of nothing.......................

How many stories of Mormonism, polygamy, etc. will now come up in the news over the next week? Good timing as well to deflect from his landscaping/illegals issue.

I think you hit the nail on the head with that one.

It was the Romney version of Kennedy's 'I'm a Catholic, but Who Cares' speech.

I will be searching for a link to see what he had to say. But just going by what I've seen of Romney so far, I would assume that there was a lot of vanilla in his statement.

Yeah...but Kennedy still got elected after his.

but Kennedy was the frontrunner and had piles of ill begotten cash behind him, none of which was earned by him. Romney actually earned some of his money and was never a viable candidate in this election.

ummm....in this field, I wouldn't say he wasn't viable. But, I don't see how he wins it.

mormons are definetly considered far more cultish than catholics. i don't mind romney, but i don't think he has any chance of winning.
