A number of readers point me in this direction — to the LDS website (bold mine):

But to an otherwise gloomy picture there is a bright side—the coming of our Lord in all His glory. His coming will be both glorious and terrible, depending on the spiritual condition of those who remain. One appearance will be to the righteous Saints who have gathered to the New Jerusalem here in America. In this place of refuge they will be safe from the wrath of the Lord which will be poured out without measure on all nations. Modern revelation provides this description: “And the glory of the Lord shall be there, and the terror of the Lord also shall be there, insomuch that the wicked will not come unto it, and it shall be called Zion. “And it shall come to pass among the wicked, that every man that will not take his sword against his neighbor must needs flee unto Zion for safety. “And there shall be gathered unto it out of every nation under heaven; and it shall be the only people that shall not be at war one with another.” (D&C 45:67–69.) Another appearance of the Lord will be to the Jews. To these beleaguered sons of Judah, surrounded by hostile Gentile armies, who again threaten to overrun Jerusalem, the Savior—their Messiah—will set His feet on the Mount of Olives, “and it shall cleave in twain, and the earth shall tremble, and reel to and fro, and the heavens also shall shake” (D&C 45:47–48). The Lord Himself will then rout the Gentile armies, decimating their forces (see Ezek. 38, 39). Judah will be spared, no longer to be persecuted and scattered. The Jews will then approach their Deliverer and ask, “What are these wounds in thine hands and in thy feet?” “… I will say unto them: These wounds are the wounds with which I was wounded in the house of my friends. I am he who was lifted up. I am Jesus that was crucified. I am the Son of God. “And then shall they weep because of their iniquities; then shall they lament because they persecuted their king.” (D&C 45:51–53.) What a touching drama this will be! Jesus—Prophet, Messiah, King—will be welcomed in His own country! Jerusalem will become an eternal city of peace!

UPDATE: From a professor at BYU:

Mormon eschatology is complex and multifaceted, and George Stephanopoulos’s seeming “gotcha” with regard to Mitt Romney rests on his own illusion that he has our doctrine pinned down. He doesn’t. Romney is right.
I’m afraid that benighted Mormons such as myself are in for a long and perhaps unpleasant season of hearing our beliefs defined for us. We may often not even recognize them. I’m reminded of a comment that Barry Goldwater made after the 1964 presidential election, when he finally got a chance to go through his press clippings: “I didn’t realize what a son of bitch I am until I read the newspapers about me.”
There is also some misrepresentation going on about Romney’s “pre-waffle” views on abortion—including right there on NRO. Just the other day, one of your columnists suggested that Romney’s view of abortion as bad except in cases where the mother’s life is threatened, etc., represents some new politically-motivated discovery on Romney’s part. I can assure that it absolutely does not. Rather, it is pure, down-the-line, long-established Mormon Church policy and teaching on the issue of abortion. Since he served for many years as a bishop and then a stake president in the LDS Church, I’m confident that Romney taught, counseled, and, where necessary, imposed ecclesiastical discipline along precisely those lines. That was his job, and, had he not shouldered his responsibilities, he would not have held the positions he did.
