The Posner Show
Sarah Posner (sarahposner.com, God's Profits) and Mollie Ziegler Hemingway (GetReligion.org, Ricochet)
On The Posner Show, Sarah talks with Mollie about religion and the Republican National Convention. Why has Romney decided to open up about his Mormon faith? For the first time, the GOP ticket doesn't have a Protestant on it, and Sarah and Mollie discuss why. Do Paul Ryan's economic proposals reflect Catholic teaching, and does it matter? They debate the importance of Todd Akin, and Mollie argues that President Obama is the real abortion extremist. Does America have an "abortion culture"? Plus: Is the election still about the economy?
