Sorry, I saw the 1st line, and immediately thought about how someome tried to attack Santorum a couple of weeks ago for something his wife did before they met, and her ex-boyfriend.

It was only after ansel12 attacked me that I realized the implication. He’s totally wrong that my post attacked Gingrich though — it was a defense of Gingrich and Santorum, against attacks using people from their family.

But this article was a lousy example to use as a launching point, because as I should have known and would have if I had read it, the story wasn’t some crazy cousin who was a hyper-devout mormon (yes, that’s what I thought I was reading), but in fact a guy who left the faith and is speaking out against it. Having totally screwed up my understanding of that (because as I said I only read the 1st sentence), what I wrote, which is exactly how I feel about the general type of smear attack, wasn’t applicable to the specifics of the article.

Which is why I apologized above.

So nothing about this article, or the comments under it, alarms you about Romney?
