How the Mormon Church Shaped Mitt Romney

Here's the big biography piece at the New York Times yesterday, "Romney’s Faith, Silent but Deep."

Ann Althouse calls this fascinating: "'Mitt and Ann Romney’s marriage is strong because they believe they will live together in an eternal afterlife...'"

But Joel Pollak isn't fascinated at all, at Big Journalism, "NY Times Ignored Obama's Wright, Focuses on Romney's Mormon Faith."

And pro-Romney blogger Jennifer Rubin goes after the Times, "The Mormon obsession":

The piece is a troubling, and in many cases a bizarre, attempt to picture Romney as “The Mormon candidate,” a standard that would repel most Americans if applied to another faith.

Word.
