Liberal PAC holding fundraiser with "Book of Mormon" play in Chicago

Western Iowa

Personal PAC, a liberal group that supports candidates who back contraception and abortion rights, will be holding a fundraiser next year in Chicago in conjunction with a performance of the tongue-in-cheek play "The Book of Mormon" next January.

The Church of Jesus of Latter Day Saints opposes contraception and elective abortion.

Mormons are usually Republican and by next January there could be a Mormon GOP president, Mitt Romney, for the liberals to complain about.

If a conservative group held a fundraiser tied to anything even remotely African American-related, you just know they would be called racist.
