As will I.

Time to start producing "Mitt yes, Mrs. Clinton HELL NO!" bumper stickers.

In such a circumstance I would be compelled to donate. I have already been defending the hell out of this guy as it is. I cannot tell you how ironic it is that a person who has never voted for a Republican in his life would spend dozens upon dozens of hours engaged in conversation engaged in his defense to people who have never voted Democratic in their life.

Ironically, it is largely Republicans who are ganging up on him, and yet Mormons continue to be staunch Republicans.

It is my fervent belief that this whole experience will be a very eye opening experience for the average Mormon about what our status is in the eyes of our fellow countrymen.

The ganging up by Republicans is what I was referring to. I would love to help him expose what the internal Republican party is all about. That is not meant as a dig against your average Republican, but at the party elites. Of course, I would not argue that the Democrats party elites would be real lovable for your average Mormon, but I think that they will be shocked to learn just how not loved we are and how taken for granted their votes are.

It would be about time Mormons woke up and realized that the idea that one party is Christ's party and other party is Satan's is a bunch of malarkey.

I am looking forward to it. I am happy to be a peculiar people, and I'm glad we will be reminded of it. I'm not particularly fond of the ecunemical strain, such as Jay Santos'
