Romney Gets Endorsement From Traditionally Anti-Mormon Group

Despite some Christians threatening to vote third party, some Christians are closing ranks around GOP candidates and looking well beyond traditional differences:

Dr. Bob Jones III, chancellor of the fundamentalist Christian university that bears his name, is looking past his religious differences with Gov. Mitt Romney and endorsing the Mormon for the Republican nomination for president, he told The Greenville News today.

“This is all about beating Hillary,” Jones said. “And I just believe that this man has the credentials both personally and ideologically in terms of his view about what American government should be to best represent the rank and file of conservative Americans.

“If it turns out to be Guiliani and Hillary, we’ve got two pro- choice candidates, and that would be a disaster.”

Asked whether Romney’s religion was a stumbling block for him, Jones replied, “What is the alternative, Hillary’s lack of religion or an erroneous religion?

“As a Christian I am completely opposed to the doctrines of Mormonism,” he said. “But I’m not voting for a preacher. I’m voting for a president. It boils down to who can best represent conservative American beliefs, not religious beliefs.”The number of Supreme Court nominees that will be available to the next President could be as high as five or six. And if it is a Hillary Clinton type Marxist in the White House you can count on the murder of children being the “Law of the Land” for the next generation or two.
