Some have speculated that Romney’s faith may have hurt him in heavily evangelical South Carolina, and Romney acknowledges that some religious conservatives may hesitate about him because he is a Mormon. “I’m sure that there are some in my party for whom my religion is a real stumbling block, who would prefer not to vote for someone of my faith.
