From Romney's speech last night:

"Freedom requires religion just as religion requires freedom"

Excuse me? Sally Quinn's interesting and accurate response:

QUINN: I have to say that I'm really stunned because I think it was an obliteration of the idea of the separation of church and state. He eliminated anybody who was a doubter, an atheist, an agnostic, a seeker. It's like, if you believe in God or Christ, you're on my side. If not, you're not.


Bingo. Though my favorite response comes from Barbara at Mahablog:

Millennia of human history in which religion did just fine without freedom are cheerfully ignored.
