Once again you are in defiance of your church leaders.
First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles Congratulate President on Election Win SALT LAKE CITY — The First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints issued the following statement Tuesday: We congratulate President Obama on winning a second term as President of the United States.
After a long campaign, this is now a time for Americans to come together. It is a long tradition among Latter-day Saints to pray for our national leaders in our personal prayers and in our congregations. We invite Americans everywhere, whatever their political persuasion, to pray for the President, for his administration and the new Congress as they lead us through difficult and turbulent times. May our national leaders reflect the best in wisdom and judgment as they fulfill the great trust afforded to them by the American people.
We also commend Governor Romney for engaging at the highest level of our democratic process, which, by its nature, demands so much of those who offer themselves for public service. We wish him and his family every success in their future endeavors.
As disappointed as I am in the election results, I am still an American and hope and pray for our government to be successful.

My thoughts exactly. Talk about a non sequitur!
I was thinking the same thing. Mr. Obama is this there, and he was elected by the people. TSM got his position by being born into Mormon royalty and by out lasting everyone else.
This last man standing crap has to end. That guy looks really bad.

I thought this same thing several times the past couple days. Confirmation bias at its finest.
