I don't think it's a good thing at all. Romney is the most prolific and unrepentant liar to run for POTUS in my lifetime. (I'm 52) It leaves the rest of us in an awkward position. Long after the election, we'll still be trying to rxplain why the first priesthood holder to win a nomination is a craven, venal, duplicitous, vapid opportunistic weasel. If a politician is to represent your faith, it should be somebody like Gandhi or President Lincoln. You don't have to be embarrassed by them.
