The point is that they DID turn out to support Romney - mormon or not - and still got their clock cleaned. The "disaster" is not that they didn't support him but that they did and lost.
Quote:As a result, 79 percent of white evangelicals voted for Romney on Tuesday. That's the same percentage that Bush received in 2004, and more than Sen. John McCain received in 2008. The evangelical vote was 27 percent of the overall electorate -- the highest it's ever been for an election.
Their support wasn't enough. Not only did President Obama win soundly, but four states voted to allow same-sex marriage.
