Romney Sick of Mormon Talk
Mitt Romney & Jan Mickelson
ON AIR & OFF AIR
Romney tells radio host he is tired of talking about Mormonism
Religion weighs heavy on the Romney campaign.
John Martin of the Poltico blogged this video of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney defending his religious consistencies on and off the air.
First posted on the studio website, Romney and his campaign staff were unaware the presidential hopeful had been videotaped by a studio camera. Romney appears agitated toward the end, stating:
I don’t like coming on the air and having you going after my church and me and my…I’m not running as a Mormon, and I get a little tired of coming on a show like yours and having it all about Mormon…
You’re trying to tell me that I’m not a faithful Mormon…
And you know what, I’m not running to talk about Mormonism.
Whether he likes it or not, the public views Mitt Romney through Mormon-colored glasses.
Stumble it!
Romney handled himself quite well in this situation. He showed poise, intellect and sound debate skills. Despite being interrupted ad nauseum by the radio host, he stayed on point and backed up his statements with anecdotal facts. Way to go Mitt!

I agree with Romney!
Why dont we give the religion a rest! Im sure that I cant be the only one out there who feels that the presidents position on Mormonism isn´t going to be the defining issue in the next four years!! I’m happy he’s a Mormon its a good thing to me, they’re good people, now lets move on!
