| | Mitt Romney |
| | Romney is making preparatory motions to field himself as a Republican presidential candidate after George W. Bush leaves office -- never mind that 17% of Americans would refuse to vote for any Mormon candidate. | | | Romney's claim to national fame came in 1999, when an inquiry into corruption found that the two top officials who led Salt Lake City's "bid" for the Olympics had actually paid bribes of more than $1-million to 24 members of the International Olympic Committee. | | | A multi-millionaire, a Mormon, and the father of five sons, Romney was the Salt Lake City Olympics' savior. |

| | MITT'S FATHER, OF COURSE, was George Romney, legendary head of the American Motor Corporation, a much-beloved three-term Michigan governor and the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development during Nixon's first term. | | | One of the specific reasons Romney gives in his book Turnaround for his decision to take the helm of the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City after the bid scandal was the "implied association of the scandal with the standing and character of the state and, further, with the Mormon Church. | | | Practically and pragmatically, that's a statement of fact, and, coupled with his opposition to funding stem cell research, Romney's conversion to an unambiguous pro-lifer might have flown had the Massachusetts Supreme Court not handed down a decision legalizing gay marriage in November 2003. |
