39. Ahh, But Then Again I'm Talking About CONSERVATIVE LDS'ers
I have not really kept up with the threads concerning the Latter Day Saints on DU. But it doesn't surprise me that the sorts of LDS'ers who would post on DU would be very sensitive to persecution. Most non-reactionaries have their thinking caps AT LEAST set to 'pilot light on' (Some have their thinking caps set to 'High') and probably have at least some notion of what the Mormons went through in the 19th century and are aware of the continuing Fundamentalist/Evangelical Protestant campaigns against them.

But do politically-conservative LDS'ers have the same sort of awareness and reaction when their church is being badmouthed as those politically progressive LDS'ers who post on DU?

I wonder. I do wonder.

Will those politically-conservative LDS'ers STILL fall behind Sharon Angle anyway, or will they express their displeasure at the polls either by voting for Harry Reid or even just leave the space on their ballots for Senator blank?
