The skeleton in this Lutheran's closet

A preliminary look at Ron Johnson (R) indicates that he opposes gay marriage and abortion (except rape & life of mother), opposes embryonic stem cell research funding and he whipped Russ Feingold for whom the President and the First Lady campaigned.  Maybe Catholic radio in Wisconsin is having an impact. First Things talks about the skeleton in his closet: his cooperation with the Catholic Church.  Johnson is a Lutheran.
