And the beat goes on ...

Post by _sock puppet »

Mitt Romney's loss Tuesday gives him new Mormon cred.

He's made it to the highest rung in politics any Mormon ever has.

But he was denied the brass ring--Mitt needs to spin this into the ultimate Mormon victimization since the LDS spun a mob murder into a martyrdom. If he does, he'll be a bigger 'rock star' at GCs he may attend in the future than the FP/12 combined.

Among Mormons, anyway, this scenario has turned into Mitt's best play for adulation from his fellows.

I'm disappointed, SP. I thought this was going to be another thread about spanking! :lol:

Sock Puppet,

Why didn't you post this in the OP?

I guess I really gave this thread a misleading title.

Sorry for the disappointments.

I read the title of the OP and was all ready to discuss Boyd K. Packer's "Little Factory" sermon:

I thought it was about Sonny and Cher.
