Well spoken pastor motivates this Mormon

Must Watch.

This Pastor makes mince meat out of your typical leftists and those who pretend to be God (atheists).

The trend being reported is that the youth are becoming more libertarian as they see Obama selling the nation out at $5 trillion a pop.

McCain got, what, 34% last time around? I think that was the worst ever for a candidate. So seeing the youth regress to the mean to where Romney is now at 41% is not surprising. But it is definitely troubling for Obama--he needs to get the youth excited, though he doesn't need to get as much of their vote as last time. And don't forget, young people just don't make up enough of the electorate to really swing the election, whereas, if Obama moves the needle on seniors even a couple percentage points in his direction, he cannot lose. Pollsters suggest that the best way for Obama to get the youth vote would be to end the idiotic war on drugs and decriminalize marijuana. Fiscal conservatives ought to be for that as well. Of course, if he came out for that, those percentage points among the elderly might go up in smoke.

It was already sold for more, and the joke is definitely on these faux-libertarian youth who imagine Romney is their champion.

There is a notable increase in libertarian thinking among young people according to sparse polls on the subject, but that doesn't mean that fact is connected to any increase in Romney's polling among the youth. Romney is a horrible candidate for a libertarian, for instance.

Full spectrum libertarian is an okay choice on the surface but is ultimately too much of a step towards liberalism. Full spectrum conservatism is a better blend. Romney is neither but he's the least left wing choice by far which is the most important factor in this election.
