Apparently De Niro has apologised: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-17472323

What I found interesting was this quote:


However, Ann Romney - wife of Republican candidate Mitt Romney - told Piers Morgan, on CNN, that she took the remark for what it was - "a joke".

"In politics the fastest way to get in trouble is make a joke. So I think Robert De Niro just learned that."


I'm thinking this shows how the people selecting the real GOP candidate tackled the thorny "mormon issue". Mittens and his wife's main advantages are that they both appear to be moderately sane, in comparison to the batshit brigade put up as alternative candidates. FFS Amy Romney appears to be more politically astute than her husband's rivals for the nomination.

Who the hell selected these people?
