Mormons prefer their misogyny subtle and understated.

Sure, they collect 11-year old brides like Beanie Babies, but at least they only f*ck them through a hole cut in the bedsheet.

Potato, Potahto.

The GOP has already caught on to how the LDS vote has put Arizona in play. This helps explain Vice President Mike Pence and Don Jr.'s multiple frantic visits to the state. .

Send Roodles. His stick pulling skills should easily win over the Mormons.

They didn’t just leave, they were run out of literally every place they tried to settle, except, Utah. And not because they went door to door trying to recruit followers.

Ms. Taber, I've read a few of your articles now, and have enjoyed them. You're bringing a "Farm-To-Economy" perspective that seems unique in the leftist blogosphere that I prefer to frequent. I hope Rebecca keeps publishing your stuff.

Thank you for pointing that out. That also accounts for their respect for education.

Small but important nit to pick:It's the LDS Church. Or Mormon Church. Or Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It's never the Church of Latter-Day Saints.(You can look it up in the AP Style Book.)Important because Evangelicals don't think Mormons are "real" Christians and harp on it at length (Never mind the "non-denominational" ragging on why they are right and all the others are wrong -- which is basically the definition of a denomination -- they aren't in charge of Christianity and everyone should stop acting like they are). Anyhow. I was raised LDS and while I don't go to church anymore and really don't like the way the church acts about most things, I still like to see the names used correctly.

The nice thing is whenever a Mormon or evangelical or even just regular Republican claims the moral high ground on anything from now on, us godless heathens can just say “well in 2020 I voted for a compassionate catholic, and you voted for a guy who brags about fucking porn stars. Now I will laugh at your fake moral stand”.

Your grandmother sounds special. Understood. Grandma had 7 kids and 36 grandkids. Granny had 12 kids and I've no idea how many grandkids because we were never stationed close to Dad's family.

I had no idea there were 30,000 Mormons in North Carolina, let alone 30,000 Mormon swing voters.
