For various reasons the Mormon Church has become established in some people’s thinking as the knee-jerk monster mind-melder whenever Mormons run for office.
Just its mere mention is apparently sufficient to discredit everything else a member of that church does or says.
The stupefying disconnect is this: If Mitt Romney is such a threat because of his Mormon background, what about Harry Reid, who is also a practicing Mormon? How can their two opposing political viewpoints be reconciled in a common religion if that religion somehow plays a role in their politics?
