Ever wondered why Harry Reid pulled no punches this time round?

Well maybe, just maybe, like the Salt Lake Tribune, he doesn't want the Church of Latter Day Saints married, for all eternity if you like, to the words, "President Romney". When your 'own' people are rooting against you, well ...

is certainly not on the RomTrain. I suspect the man himself would be more vocal if it wouldn't kill his chances within the party forever.

The fact that he was BY FAR the most qualified Republican candidate and never even had a chance shows how pathetic their party is. He was a decent governor in Utah, has cabinet experience, and is uniquely qualified to deal with China due to his knowledge of Chinese and ambassador experience there. He's a Mormon but he's a man of integrity unlike R$. I don't agree with all of his positions but he's a respectable politician at least.
