Mitt, Mormonism and politics: A cautionary tale
If Romney is the GOP nominee, Democrats might do well to learn from a mistake Ted Kennedy made in 1994
The Washington Post’s Jason Horowitz has written a fascinating account of Mitt Romney’s work in the 1980s and early 1990s as one of the Mormon church’s top leaders in Boston. As my Salon colleague Justin Elliott (who has done his share of reporting on Romney’s past) pointed out earlier today, the Post story and other previously reported details from the ’80s and ’90s “paint a portrait of Romney as an enforcer of the most socially conservative policies of the LDS church.” Elliott has a complete run-down of what’s out there.Mitt Romney: Mormon enforcer
As an LDS leader, he administered among the most socially conservative policies of the church particularly in the realms of sex and women’s rights.
