8. I think the fundies are conflicted

They don't like McSame...

They don't trust Obama

They think they are one SCOTUS Justice away from having Roe overturned

They know they've been badly used by the GOP

You're spot on about many of them thinking LDS is a cult, and I think GOP strategists underestimated the blowback they'd get on that. Honsetly, I was surprised that folks like Dobson didn't back Sam Brownback more strongly from the outset.

I think Brownback could be a shrewd pick for McSame. He's Catholic, but appeals strongly to fundies. He's young by comparison. He has impeccable conservative credentials, but his views dovetail with McSame on things like the environment.
