DES MOINES, Iowa, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- The Iowa political director for Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich resigned after making a disparaging remark about the Mormon faith.
Craig Bergman was with the Gingrich campaign less than a week before he left Tuesday after suggesting evangelicals were prepared to "expose the cult of Mormon," the faith of GOP presidential hopefuls Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman, McClatchy Newspapers reported Tuesday.
