“A lot of people were talking about doing it before Thanksgiving and the holidays, but then we moved up in the polls, including in South Carolina,” a senior Romney advisor tells Beliefnet. “So the thinking became that the timing [for a speech on religion] was not as rushed.”

Well, now it’s broke. So they’re going to try to fix it.

Halperin breaks it down here. Exit question: Can Mitt get away with a generalized JFK-esque “it just doesn’t matter” speech? I’m guessing … no.
