Axelrod: Attacks On Mormonism ‘Not Fair Game’

Appearing on CNN’s “State Of The Union,” Obama adviser David Axelrod said that attacks on Gov. Mitt Romney’s faith, Mormonism are “not fair game.”

“Does the re-elect committee repudiate the idea that Mormonism should be on the table?” CNN’s Candy Crowley asked.

“Absolutely and we have right along,” Axelorod said. “We’ve said that’s not fair game. And we wish that Governor Romney would stand up as strongly and as resolutely consistently to — to — to refute these kinds of things on his side. Instead he’s amplified them in the past. And he’s put logs on that fire. And that’s not leadership.”
