Romney - The Morman Factor
HILTON HEAD, S.C. (AP) - Some South Carolina Republicans remain
concerned about Mitt Romney's Mormon faith.
With the state's presidential primary just days away, a woman
asked Romney at a campaign stop if he believes in "the divine
saving grace of Jesus Christ."
Romney responded that he does, adding, "I happen to believe
that Jesus Christ is the son of God and my savior." But he added
that a candidate's faith should neither qualify nor disqualify him
or her from leadership in America.
Conservative Protestants and Roman Catholics do not consider
Mormons to be Christian, although Mormons insist they are.
Romney rarely mentions his faith on the campaign trail unless
asked.
