Romney Has One Wife, Says His Wife
"The biggest difference between Mitt Romney and the other candidates," she said, is that Mitt has "only had one wife."
The Politico's Jonathan Martin has the scoop behind Ann Romney's creative description of her husband's family values.
Does that mean that, to Romney's campaign, the marriages of Sen. John McCain (2) and ex-NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani (3) are fair game?
And here's another weird observation: Not a single first-or-second tier Democratic candidate has been divorced.

Is Chris Dodd third-tier?

Curious you mention Dodd. Did you know that Mrs. Senator Chris Dodd is a Mormon?

Oh, but I thought Republicans were the Family Values Party? lol...

Senator Harry Reid (D) is also Mormon. The Republicans try to hold on to family values. No party is perfect and least of all the people in those parties.

Is this a weird Mormon counter-allegation? Is the subtext here supposed to be that Mitt, the Mormon ("ick... weird... polygamy..." says the chorus) actually has a stronger "monogamy platform" than Rudy or McCain?
She didn't say, "they've been divorced;" she said, "Mitt's had one wife."
