And how about that Huckabee, eh? Keep watching, he'll have a Howard Dean meltdown sooner rather than later.Romney vows Mormon church would not run White House
By Steve Holland
COLLEGE STATION, Texas (Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney vowed on Thursday the Mormon church would not run the White House if he is elected, as he sought to reassure Americans wary of his religion.
Attempting to halt a slide in the polls in Iowa, where former Arkansas Gov. and Baptist preacher Mike Huckabee has surged into the lead, Romney made an impassioned appeal to Americans to look beyond his religion.
"Let me assure you that no authorities of my church, or of any other church for that matter, will ever exert influence on presidential decisions. Their authority is theirs, within the province of church affairs, and it ends where the affairs of the nation begin," Romney said.
He spoke at the presidential library of former President George H.W. Bush in College Station, a setting chosen in part because it is not far from Houston, where Democratic candidate John Kennedy addressed Americans about his Catholic religion in 1960 and went on to win the presidency that year.
Romney, a former governor of Massachusetts who would be the first Mormon president of the United States as Kennedy was the first Catholic president, cast himself in Kennedy's mold.
His parole record as governor will hurt him big time, and this weekend it came out that he once wanted to quarantine all AIDS patients.

Trust me, Huck is about 90 miles of bad road. The national GOP has to be shitting peaches about the prospect of him as the nominee.He never said he wanted to quarantine anyone, he protested. He only wanted to isolate them. Oh. That's different. (First definition in Merriam-Webster on-line dictionary of the word "isolate:" : "to set apart from others; also : quarantine")
I wrote a paper in an English class once based on Swift's A Modest Proposal where I outlined doing exactly that--the number of people who thought I was serious and it was a good idea, even knowing what the goddamn assignment was based on, was astounding.O-dot wrote:His parole record as governor will hurt him big time, and this weekend it came out that he once wanted to quarantine all AIDS patients.

Lieberman to endorse McCain
By GLEN JOHNSON, Associated Press Writer
MANCHESTER, N.H. - Sen. John McCain, trying to build momentum toward a reprise of his 2000 New Hampshire primary victory, is piling up high-profile endorsements, including one from another political maverick, Sen. Joseph Lieberman.
The Connecticut senator, an independent who was the Democrats' 2000 vice presidential nominee, was scheduled to announce his support for McCain at a town hall meeting Monday morning in Hillsborough.
A Lieberman adviser said the senator decided to back McCain despite being a Republican because he believes his colleague from Arizona "has the best chance of uniting the country in its fight against Islamic terrorism."
