McCain, Mormons, and Mitt

Flashback two months ago. In April, some McCain activist from Iowa made a blunt statement about Mormons and the Church of Latter-day Saints. Mitt Romney is a Mormon. Some speculate some republican on republican hate going on here, but honestly, tying McCain to these Mormon comments are ridiculous. Chad Workman is the chairman for Warren County, a county in Iowa which supports McCain and in April, questioned whether Mormons were Christians and referred to an article which linked the Mormon church to a Islamic militant group known as Hamas. Clearly, this guy didn't know what he was doing and should be fired. Trying to link hostile militant groups to another candidate's faith and reilgion is something that demoralizes character and therefore leads to a negative link to McCain and his campaign. John can't control everything his lackeys say and do for him and therefore, although not personally, his campaign came out and publically apologized to the Romney campaign about these comments. Although McCain isn't at fault here, it makes him look bad. Workman clearly did not take a class in ethics and at this point of the campaign, they should let their candidate do the bashing themselves. These candidates do a good job of making their fellow collegues look bad on TV during these debates anyways. Comments about one's religions and tying them into their stance on abortion and gay rights and the army are starting to wear thin on the public. The debates are fun to watch and Workman probably screwed McCain over because Mitt is probably going to stump McCain publically on TV sooner or later.
