Survival Skills Title: Conservative Group Launches “Dump Romney” Campaign (Jews and Christians Together) A group called "Jews and Christians Together," which backed Rick Santorum in the Republican primary, is sending a memo to Republican National Convention delegates urging them not to vote for Mitt Romney at the convention, even if they're bound to him. The nine-page memo casts Romney's nomination in the direst terms. A press release from the group reads: The core of a hard-hitting new 80,000 word book and incubating Tampa The memo doesn't specify who Romney should be replaced with. A core of Ron Paul supporters had been the only organized Republican opposition to accepting Romney as the nominee, but Paul campaign manager Jesse Benton told BuzzFeed that the memo had nothing to do with them, calling it "disgusting and highly inappropriate." Instead, it's a brainchild of Steve Baldwin, the former chief of the Council for National Policy, a low-profile, well-connected conservative group. Baldwin said the memo was sent out to 20,000 people in politics in media, as well as RNC delegates. "Were just saying that Romney has so many liabilities that will be exploited by Obama," Baldwin said in a phone interview. "I dont have a problems with Mormons personally, but it is a liability issue" among evangelical voters, Baldwin said. Baldwin said that the people who put together the memo are supporters of different primary candidates, including Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich (Baldwin is a Bachmann supporter). Jews and Christians Together briefly made the news in March for putting out robocalls in Ohio on behalf of Rick Santorum, then still a presidential candidate. The call accused Romney of supporting "open homosexuality in the military, the appointment of homosexual judges, and the ENDA law, making it illegal to fire a man who wears a dress and high heels to work, even if he's your kid's teacher." The memo is accompanied by an "expanded" 100-page version, available on Amazon. It devotes a lot of space to attacking Romney's Mormonism as "hostile to American monotheism and hetero-monogamy" (there's even a picture of Brigham Young in drag).

Complete nonsense, you people just can't get over the fact that your chosen candidate ron paul is a hopeless loser.
It's highly unlikely that either Mitt OR Ron Paul will ever be president. Pity about Ron, but that's the way it is. Is there even a chance that your vote will swing an electoral delegate Mitt's way?
