...Mitt Romney in the White House [May 21]? I don't think this country could endure another teetotaler President. The charge that questioning Romney's religion amounts to bigotry misses the point that if he were elected, at least 10% of his income - which would come from us taxpayers - would go to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We have the right to ask him what he believes. Remember, this is a church that, until the late 1970s, believed blacks couldn't go to the highest tier of heaven, limits women's rights and believes...

...Here's what we've learned so far: In both parties, there's a top two-Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama for the Democrats, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain for the Republicans. There's a third-place candidate on the edge of the first tier-John Edwards and Mitt Romney. There's a big jump down to the next tier of declared candidates, none of whom seem to have much of a chance. And there is a possible late entry (Al Gore) or two (Fred Thompson and Newt Gingrich), any of whom would join the first tier...
