Romney’s great-grandfather’s wives: why is this news?

February 25, 2007 By Mark Kleiman @markarkleiman

I’m no fan of Mitt Romney, or for that matter of politicized Mormonism as it operates in Utah.

But I see absolutely no excuse for running a “news story” about what Romney’s ancestors did 100 years ago.

Do you think Rudy Giuliani’s mobbed-up father is going to get similar treatment? Not hardly. This is pure religious bigotry, and it stinks.
