During 2007, Sharpton was accused of bigotry for comments he
made on May 7, 2007, concerning presidential candidate
Mitt Romney and his
religion,
Mormonism:
- "As for the one Mormon running for office, those who really
believe in God will defeat him anyways, so don't worry about that;
that's a temporary situation."[68][69]
In response, a representative for Romney told reporters that
"bigotry toward anyone because of their beliefs is
unacceptable."

Catholic League compared
Sharpton to
Don Imus, and
said that his remarks "should finish his career".
