Kate O'Beirne put the subject of Mitt Romney's Mormon polygamist heritage into clear perspective in an August blog entry at National Review Online. Responding to a report that the Massachusetts Governor's great-grandfather had "multiple" wives and two great-great-grandfathers required no less than 10 "Hers" bathroom towels, she wisely observed:
"Should Mitt Romney join a 2008 race that included John McCain, Rudy Giuliani, Newt Gingrich and George Allen, the only guy in the GOP field with only one wife would be the Mormon."
