With or without Romney, D.C. a surprising Mormon stronghold

Living within 70 miles of the DC Temple, it's not hard to find a mess of us running around!Most of us are 'country folk' though and stay as far away as possible from living there. There are those that commute and one would be suprised at the positions,both government and private sector, that the Saints hold in DC. The article didn't even scratch the surface.What is interesting about the article is the 'fair and balanced' stance it takes in its' portrait of the Saints. Very fair and favorable towards us. Not something I would expect from CNN at all.The curiosity,questions and interest we are getting in this region have provided many opportunites to repudiate the anti propoganda against the Church.And it's only just beginning. A lot has been said about Brother Romney openig those doors, but a lot of credit must go to Glenn Beck when he was with FOX NEWS, and to the Saints who quietly 'took up the cross' and saw the opportunies opening up as a result; and clearing the path for Brother Romney. Our own experiences have been 90% positive; even to getting clergy from other faiths to support Romney and in some cases even reading books from LDS authors!Regardless of the election outcome, the focus on the Saints will not go away now, for good or ill.How we take advantage of it; it's on our heads whether we act,or not.
