HUGH HEWITT
In a speech before the Evangelical Theological Society, Hewitt, an evangelical law professor, author, radio host, and blogger, said, "Many in this room in the next year to year-and-a-half will be asked by students and the media, 'What do you think about Mitt Romney?'" He continued, "If we begin to ask Mitt Romney about which [Mormon] practices and doctrines he subscribes to, it cannot be capped. It will not be stopped." He also said, "They [secular absolutists] do not want us in politics and in the public square because they believe us widely to be irrational. It would be tragic to me that in the course of rushing off to do battle with Mormon theology, you attract our common opponent."
