Well. It is complicated here in Utah. Yes, Mormons (who run the joint) are conservative, but are globalists and minders (generally speaking. Very generally). Mitt Romney is a rich Mormon who most conservatives hate. Do the Mormon leaders? I dunno. We also have the issue of MANY new people coming to our state from CA and CO (mostly, as far as I can tell) who fled their state for a variety of reasons, but instead of embracing conservatism (because the proof is in the puddin), they write love letters to Romney and vow to register as R's and vote for the down lo lib running as a R. At least that is the state of affairs in my area of Utah. Salt Lake City is Liberalville. Also known as a hell hole.
