AOL is carrying a story from politico.com sort of touting Mitt Romney as McCain's VP choice. There is no PURPOSE to the story, as it contaions nothing new--even the reference to unannamed "Republican insdiers" is not new. You can be assured I have no access to "Republican insiders" (THANK GOD), but I said the same things in this blog months ago (same things as politico.com says about Romney as VP). My prediction as to McCain's choice remains the same: Governor Crist of Florida (NOT my preferred choice). However, McCain does not have to choose before Obama, and he WILL NOT. therefore, these REPETITIVE speculative guesses serve no function, at this point.
However, there is one advantage to a story like this on Romney. It smokes out the RELIGIOUS BIGOTS, and the LEFTISTS who are either religtious bigots, or are perfectly willing to cater to religious bigotry. As the politico.com story says, Romney has led a "queaky clean" life, which makes you wonder about people who attack his RELIGION. However, the religious bigots surface every time there is a story on Roomney. Here is an example from under the AOL story, along with my reply:
"REPUBLICANS NEED A BRAIN IN ROMNEY?HE IS A FOLLOWER OF A CULT RELIGION. DOES THAT MAKE ROMNEY A BRAIN?"
Now the above is RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY, pure and simple. If you compare the Mormon Church (mainstream Mormon Church which abandoned polygamy in the 19th Century), with REVERND WRIGHT'S CULT variation on the Church of Christ, to which Obama belonged for 20 years, I dare you to conclude which church is more accurately described as a "cult". Then compare the LIVES that Mormons seem to live, with the LIVES most "old line" Christians seem to live, and you might ask whether the Mormon Church does not instill Christian VALUES better than most. I say that as a person who is not religious at all. But I hope McCain does pick Romney (my original choice for President), if only to expose leftists (and some others) for the RELIGIOUS BIGOTS they are.

Mormons are not Creedal Christians. However, they do believe in the Jesus Christ of the New Testament:
The Church of Jesus Christ (LDS) is often accused by Evangelical pastors of not believing in Christ and, therefore, not being a Christian religion. This article http://mormonsarechristian.blogspot.com/ helps to clarify such misconceptions by examining early Christianity's comprehension of baptism, the Godhead, the deity of Jesus Christ and His Atonement.
The Church of Jesus Christ (LDS) adheres more closely to First Century Christianity and the New Testament than any other denomination. For example, Harper’s Bible Dictionary entry on the Trinity says “the formal doctrine of the Trinity as it was defined by the great church councils of the fourth and fifth centuries is not to be found in the New Testament.”
One Baptist blogger stated “99 percent of the members of his Baptist church believe in the Mormon (and Early Christian) view of the Trinity. It is the preachers who insist on the Nicene Creed definition.” It seems to me the reason the pastors denigrate the Church of Jesus Christ (LDS) is to protect their flock (and their livelihood).
