Romney Plans Speech on His Mormon Faith

Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney (R) has
decided to give a speech directly addressing his
Mormon faith, much as then-candidate John F. Kennedy
did about his Catholic faith before the 1960 election.

The Romney campaign announced Sunday that he will
speak about his religious beliefs Thursday at the
George H. W. Bush Presidential Library in College
Station, Tex. Romney's speech is titled "Faith in
America," spokesman Kevin Madden said in a statement.

Romney has said for months that he sees no need to
make a big deal out of his religion, despite surveys
which suggest that for some voters, especially in the
South, his Mormon faith makes them less likely to vote
for him. A Washington Post poll found earlier this
year that his religion was regarded by voters as a
bigger stumbling block than Illinois Sen. Barack
Obama's race or New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's
gender.
