You are right August, they are doing this very thing. The difference is that JFK made a point to distance himself from his religious beliefs in the political arena. "I do not speak for my Church on public matters - and the Church does not speak for me." Houston Tx. Sept. 12 1960. Santorum on the other hand is basically stepping in his own doo doo. He's handed the other guys a big stick and they will use it. These days you say something controversial and before you're out the door it's on the 'interwebs'. In Kennedy's day politicians got a free pass on a lot of things but those days are gone. For better or worse I can't say.
