Sharon Angle's Pastor Lashes out on Mormons--could this help Reid gain conservative Mormons?


Harry Reid and Sharron Angle had their first and only public debate this week.  When asked to chose one word to describe their competition each chose words they felt would improve their chances of winning office. Angle called Reid an "elite" and Reid chose the word "extreme" to describe Angle.

More recently Angle's Pastor has lashed out on Mormons calling them a cult and saying their leadership hires "assassins" to get rid of unwanted leaders or people around the world.

This poses a sticky issues for Conservative Mormons--do they support the conservative who has ties to an anti-Mormon pastor or a good standing Mormon who has different political views.

This article show cases the White House Prophesy.  Joseph Smith has been credited with making a prosphecy that the Constitution will hang by a thread and the Elders of Israel will come to rescue and save the nation.


The Huffington Post has tried to tag this to Orrin Hatch or Mitt Romney.  Sounds a little silly for such a big newspaper to get caught up in supposed prophesy made in the 1800's.
