Video: Jon Stewart addresses Mitt Romney's Mormonism

Now this is an interesting approach. Comedy Central's Jon Stewart does an entire segment on Mitt Romney's religion and comes across as defending it while still keeping it an issue. In fact, Stewart chides conservative evangelical leaders for chiding Mormonism. He also criticizes MSNBC hosts Lawrence O'Donnell and Martin Bashir for attacking Romney over religion.

It's important to remember, though, that it's not about the left coming to Mormonism's defense. It's about keeping the issue in the public eye. Stewart did just that here. Segments like this one will help Barack Obama.
