Perhaps it's just me, but I cannot see how one can be objective where something as profound as a deeply held religious belief is concerned. Faith in a religion is, in my view anyway, a very subjective matter.

Christian conservatives that might have more than a superficial understanding of Mormonism could not vote for a Mormon. Because you are LDS, and because you would have no problem voting for Romney, I wonder if you could possibly comprehend people feeling that way.

I hope this doesn't come across as patronizing, or worse, disrespectful, because that is not my intent.

"Probably", "maybe" ??? - you don't know me so your assumptions are not only way off base, but ignorant to say the least!
