Obama campaign mulls attacks on Mitt Romney's religion
President Barack Obama's advisers consider former governor Mitt Romney (R-MA) their most likely opponent in 2012, according to Ben Smith and Johnathan Martin of Politico. And so, in the words of one anonymous Democratic strategist, they are going to try to "kill" him by borrowing the tactics used by then-President George W. Bush (R) against Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) in 2004: portray him as waffling and "inauthentic" and, in an oft-used word, "weird."
