Well since Mitt Romney is still a strong contender amongst the  Rethuglicans (*g*) I thought I'd check out exactly what he supposedly believes in at The Skeptics Annotated Book of Mormon.

Oh my, I'm certainly going to check that link out later :) I must admit to being totally fascinated with the whole US Presidential race.

We have nothing like that here in NI - when the UK mainland are busy voting for who they want as their, or should I say 'our', Prime Minister, we get to vote for representatives of whom I'm never sure who they're representing! Although we're a part of the UK, we don't get to vote Labour or Conservative per se as everyone on the Mainland does - in fact, I'm never really sure *why* we are voting as it's only really on a local Council basis, not Labour or 'Tory.

I'm enjoying the whole USA process on Sky, though. I'm actually quite excited as to who will finally be elected President. At the end of the day, I may be hundreds of miles across the ocean, but the outcome, especially with *this* years candidates, will affect us all.

I certainly don't want a president who believes that Native Americans are descended from Hebrew immigrants especially since geneticists have performed DNA tests and shown that native Americans share a common ancestry with people in Siberia.

LOL! And I thought no one could top us Irish in terms of this kind of shennanigans ;)

With Romney the Mormon (I originally wrote Huckabee *headdesk*) and Huckabee the fundamentalist preacher favored by the religious right and McCain the hypocrite, the Rethuglicans have an interesting lineup of all white males whereas we have a woman, an African-American and, until he dropped out, a part-Hispanic. We are the future and the Rethuglicans are clinging to a past that never was.
