Mormon first lady
Mitt Romney's prospects on becoming the first Mormon president have received a lot of ink.
But Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd has said he's considering an '08 White House run. That means his wife, Jackie Clegg, could become the country's first Mormon First Lady. (Easy polygamy joke of the day: Who knows when there might be a Mormon Second Lady or Third Lady?)
According to an item in The Hill, a Washington newspaper that covers Congress, Utah Sen. Bob Bennett recently told a story about how Dodd joked that "At Bob Jones University, we are now a two-cult family."
Bob Jones is a flagship school for evangelicals, some of whom consider Mormons and Catholics, like Dodd, to be cultists.
