On the weekend, your humble Editor will explain his own religion and connections to some other LDS notables: Harry 'Dingy' Reid; Mitt Romney; Glenn Beck; apathetic LDS in Utah; inspired Mormons in Utah; leaders of the LDS Church; and LDS not in Utah, and throughout the world.
We invite you to read, learn, and comment. Rush Limbaugh explained how ESTABLISHMENT Republicans like George Romney, John Rockefeller, and one other wanted Richard Nixon to run in the Republican Primary against Goldwater (who was bound to lose to any Democrat after the JFKennedy assassination) but he refused and campaigned for Goldwater instead. So the trio of ESTABLISHMENT Republicans (G.Romney, J.Rockefeller, one other) worked to sabotogue the Goldwater campaign. It worked. Nixon rose to the presidency and the other three flaundered. This is the history told briefly and only once by Rush Limbaugh.

First, the name Rush Limbaugh didn't recall at the time seems to be PA Governor William Scranton. So, although Goldwater wasn't going to win, the non-support of some Republican notables didn't help the Republican cause: (Nelson Rockefeller, Gov. George Romney, and Gov. William Scranton). We see the same happening today.
Speaking of George Romney, we remember how George Romney was winning the Republican nomination, when a reporter asked if George Romney had a pipeline to God. He said, "Yes, and you do too." Soon after that, the RNC asked George Romney (Mitt's dad) to step down and he did.
