Or maybe he's just a smart politician. Becuase Lord knows, the ones running the Puke machine these days sure as heck aren't!

To keep from bringing up Romney being Mormon. It's like they all have amnesia from 2008 where they relentlessly went after Obama's religion. I think we need to pound on this, because in the South, he already has problems because of it. It needs to be pointed out as the cult it is.

And Mitt Romney's crazy preacher is named Mitt Romney.

He was a bishop in the Mormon church, he had authority over several hundred members of the church, and as bishop, he told a single woman that she had to give up her child for adoption or face excommunication, and tried to block a woman from having a medical abortion to save her life.

I thought that campaign finance laws prohibited campaigns from coordinating with SuperPac.

Wouldn't the romney campaign's denouncing the ad, before it was aired and the superpac then deciding not to air the ad, be considered coordination?
