5/24/11: Romney, Huntsman and 2012

Doug Fabrizio (2011-05-23)

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH (kuer) - Mormonism is making headlines again in the Republican presidential race. In 2008, there were a lot of questions about Mitt Romney's membership in the LDS Church. Romney's thrown his hat in the ring again, but chances are he won't be alone. Utah's own Jon Huntsman hasn't officially declared, but he's just off a 5-day tour of early primary state New Hampshire. Tuesday, we're talking about the 2012 prospects for Romney and Huntsman and what being "Mormon" means to them and to American voters.
