Rove on Romney:
He (Rove) went on to call Romney’s organization a “textbook campaign” and drew a contrast to the amount of media attention the former governor’s Mormon religion has garnered when compared to his father’s presidential run in 1967. Rove said that while he was still at the White House, he got some interns together to see how many front-page articles in major publications were devoted to the Michigan governor’s religion and said he found much fewer than today. He attributed part of this to timing, only seven years after Kennedy’s Catholicism had been a point of concern.

LOL. .
