Defending Mitt

In the interests of bipartisan comity, let me say that I disagree with those who think "a vote for Romney is a vote for Satan." Romney is not Satan. He's a former businessman and a competent manager with a bit of a taste for political opportunism. I have some bad things to say about the man, but he's not Satan or even in league with Satan and to say otherwise is unfair. I think it's too bad that this Mormon business will almost certainly sink Romney's campaign (this probably won't help either) since my guess is that he'd be a better president than the other leading GOP contenders.
