...but a few years ago, according to my brother-in-law, who married my youngest sister and who brought her into the Mormon church, one or two of the elders of the church have gently chided American Mormons that too many were voting Republican - that in order to have some level of influence regardless of where the country goes, more Mormons need to become part of the Democratic Party.

So, who knows?  Get some folks to run for office that can appeal to the growing non-Mormon minority in the state, but who can also peel off just enough Mormon votes, have Senator Reid visit on behalf of them a few times, and maybe we can get a Ben Nelson-level officeholder or two out of the deal.
