Romney adopts Mormon version of WWJD as his slogan..."Choose the Right"

http://www.buzzfeed.com/mckaycoppins/supporters-adopt-mormon-slogan-to-campaign-for-rom



SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — Mitt Romney has done everything short of chug vodka on the stump to make clear that his Mormon faith has no connection to his presidential candidacy, but some of his most ardent supporters in Utah haven't quite followed his lead.

A small group of Romney-ites here have begun campaigning for the Republican using a widely-known Mormon slogan, "Choose the right" — the functional equivalent of the Christian saying, "What would Jesus do?"

In the Mormon Church, the adage is everywhere. It's repeated in Sunday School lessons as a reminder to obey the commandments, it's emblazoned on children's coloring books, and its acronym, CTR, is stamped on popular rings worn by Mormons throughout the world


It appears the assimilation has begun. Unwhittingly or not, you will become one of them...either now, or later.
