Mormon tribalism has never been weaker

Here we have a politician who has done some authentically anti-mormon things staring us right in the face. Loyalty to party is stronger than loyalty to faith? I wouldn't have predicted that.

We have to be pragmatic.

Yes Yuckabee is cartoonish and an outrage that people would vote for. But in Clinton, Obama and Edwards, those three economically represent the worst collection of candidates the Democratic Party has ever presented. Of middle class citizens, they will do more immediate harm than anybody else imaginable.

I know I've lost credibility on this issue by sounding so strident but nobody has sufficiently rebutted the bad economics of these candidates.

How does one pay for gross inflations of Welfare, Medicare and Universal Healthcare in a flat demographic era? And what drag upon the economy will that be?

These candidates spout political utopia but practice economic idiocy. We cannot afford their ideas. And I will shout it from the rooftop until we file bankruptcy.
