I didn't see it but I read parts of it. It sounded like it went pretty well. Did anyone hear it or see it? Given that I didn't see it I can't speculate on whether it will help or hurt him. What do you guys think?

That's what I read. There were some great lines in that speech:
"It is as if they are intent on establishing a new religion in America ? the religion of secularism. They are wrong,"
"I do not define my candidacy by my religion. A person should not be elected because of his faith nor should he be rejected because of his faith ... I will put no doctrine of any church above the plain duties of the office and the sovereign authority of the law," Romney said. " If I am fortunate enough to become your president, I will serve no one religion, no one group, no one cause, and no one interest ... A president must serve only the common cause of the people of the United States.?
and
"I believe in my Mormon faith and I endeavor to live by it. My faith is the faith of my fathers. I will be true to them and to my beliefs. Some believe that such a confession of my faith will sink my candidacy. If they are right, so be it. But I think they underestimate the American people," he said. "Americans do not respect ... believers of convenience. Americans tire of those who would jettison their beliefs, even to gain the world."
