Romney Calls Disgusting

Look, first off, I'm going to say this one more time, as has every conservative and/or Republican who isn't falling for this "No Mormons in the White House" mantra. Mitt Romney may be a Mormon and his beliefs may differ from the rest of us, but he is still a Christian and a good, decent, family man. I'm not defending the guy because I support him (at least right now) but because he is just what I said, a decent guy who doesn't deserve this. Loo, I know this is politics and all's fair in love and war and all that, but this is ridiculous.

Some loser wants to call people up and for the umpteenth time try to bring Mormons down to the level of sub-human. I mean Jeez, not even Kennedy got this much flak when he was the first Roman-Catholic to run for president. Some morons are saying that it's Romney's own people doing this. OK, sure, be up in the Iowa and New Hampshire polls, then pull something like this to look desperate and foolish. Yeah, good call.

The push-polling question?
and the Romney camp response

Amanda Carpenter at Townhall has a good take on it.

This stuff has nothing to do with his record, his leadership abilities or his personal integrity. Where was all the vitriol (at least from the left) and nay-saying when Keith Ellison (the first and -so far-only Muslim in Congress) sworw his allegience on the Qu'ran?

To whom it may concern,
People, give it up and let it go.
Like Romney himself said when first questioned about this (and about a billion times since then)
"I running for president, not pastor."
