The questions are whose hands at the COB touched this on it way to Florida, who are those "Church executives", and if the decision to not have the 'court of love' tomorrow was local or COB made.

Since one of those temple sites was the Orlando temple, and, Romney needs the Florida vote, my guess is that they decided to wait until after the election to pursue this.
If it got out that the decision to postpone is not strictly as stated, due to the bishop's being out of town, then this is going to be a PR disaster for COB. Also, what has called the bishop out of town on a Sunday no less, that he did not know about when first scheduling the 'court of love' for 9/30/2012?
Inquiring minds want to know.
