I have a secret

Don't tell anyone, but I don't care that Mitt Romney is a Mormon, nor that Mike Huckabee is a Baptist and that Hillary Clinton is a Methodist. If it mattered I would be a Hillary Clinton supporter since I am a Methodist. I am anything but a Hillary supporter.

Much has been made of values voters ever since they were 'discovered' in 2004. This election cycle has been about all religion all the time it seems lately anyway. I have somewhat of a suspicious belief that our Mainstream media sees this as a way to make religious people look silly.

I look for a candidate that agrees with my values. There is no candidate right now that I am 100% behind, religious or not. I have very little agreement with the Mormon church on theological matters, but I will not be attending the church of Mitt Romney. If he is the Republican candidate I will have to decide if he is the proper person to lead our country. I like a lot about Romney, I don't know yet if he is my candidate, but his religion matters not at all.

I am very conservative and consider myself quite religious, but think this debate of Mormon or not Mormon to be silly and a destraction. Here is a question I find interesting: Do the candidates believe that the money I earn is mine or theirs? Do the candidates consider the best way to fix health care to be the free market or a government agency? Do the answers to education concerns lie mostly in families or the Department Of Education? Do we help poor people more by giving them incentives to climb the social ladder, or by giving them handouts? These are important to me, but I see very little of them covered in the news. I hope some citizens agree with me. Time will tell.
