The worst spin of all time

Al Sharpton clearly caught in yet another stupid statement, attacking Mitt Romney's faith, attempted to spin it. First, his statement:

"As for the one Mormon running for office, those who really believe in God will defeat him anyways, so don't worry about that; that's a temporary situation," Sharpton said Monday during a debate with Hitchens at the New York Public Library's Beaux-Arts headquarters.

After being called out for his obvious attack on Mitt's faith, he responded:

In a later interview with the AP, Sharpton denied questioning Romney's belief in God...Rather, the New York Democrat said he was contrasting himself with Christopher Hitchens, the atheist author he was debating at the time.

WHAT? How the F is there any possible way that Sharpton could spin his quote to indicate he was attacking his debate opponent Hitchens' atheist views? His statement is so clearly specific in its direction towards Mitt and Mormons that it is laughable that he would even attempt to spin it. Of course, he'll get a pass, unlike Imus.

Romney coming out defending himself, not letting Sharpton get a free pass. I like it.
