Romney Speech Made No Difference
Posted on December 11, 2007
When everyone else was praising the wonderful, JFK type, speech of Mitt Romney as the next best thing to butter, I believe that I stated it wouldn’t make much of a difference to anyone already holding his religion against him. I hate to say I told you so…but….
A new Gallup Poll finds that better than one in six Americans, including similar numbers of Republicans and Democrats, indicate they would not support their party’s nominee for president if that person were a Mormon.
The poll was conducted from Dec. 6 to 9, immediately following the major speech by Republican presidential candidate Gov. Mitt Romney, in which he addressed voter concern about his Mormon religion. The percentage of Republicans who now rule out voting for a Mormon, 18%, is just one point lower than it was in March.
Should we put Hugh Hewitt on suicide watch?

It may have changed people who were wavering. I doubt JFK’s speech did any better. I thought giving the speech was foolish and risky but it may not have damaged his conservative credentials.
