More on Mitt Romney, if people can get past the religion his record is very good. (but as the article says, there's a flat 17% of americans that would never vote for a mormon, too big of a chunk for the Repub's to take a chance on. [ 01-22-2007, 01:32 PM: Message edited by: Morgeruat ]

Well, to be honest, there's a decent possibility that a lot of those 17% are of the people who would never vote for the Republicans anyway.
I imagine that more Democrats have problems with openly and strongly religious leaders than Republicans(Though this is just a guess, mind you.). And Mormons tend to be, if not necessarily more strong, in my experience at least more vocal about their faith than many other branches of Christianity. Of course, I could be wrong. Could be that the Democrats are open to anyone who wants to do The Right Thing and it's religious right-winger Republicans who would never vote for someone who isn't a follower of THEIR particular favourite interpretation of the Bible. Additionally, keep in mind that said poll was from 1999. 8 years is a lot of time for people to change their minds. It also has no details on poll methodology, etc., so it could've been a deeply flawed piece of research. All in all, I wouldn't put too much(Har har) faith in it. |

How much do we actually know of Hillary's policies though? She's got the name, but anyone know how she's voted on various issues?
