VET THE MEDIA: AS PREDICTED, ATTACK ON ANN ROMNEY BEGINS WITH BEN SMITH

(IT WAS) Ben Smith's BuzzFeed Politics that has fired the first shot at Ann Romney. - John Nolte at BIG Journalism

Buzzfeed also attacks Romney's Mormon faith, so it's a nice, sweet two-fer for Their Precious One.

The Washington Post's Jennifer Rubin expresses exactly what Ben Smith and company are up to better than I could: ◼ Is it open season on Mormonism?
The Obama team won’t touch this stuff with 10-foot poll. And so long as they have press people who will carry the message (and retweet and link) questioning Romney’s views on race and gender because he is a Mormon, it doesn’t have to.
