Identities of Those Rejected As Ambassador To Vatican Disclosed [Corrected]

Earlier this month, it was reported that the Vatican had rejected three names put forward as the possible nominee for U.S. ambassador to the Holy See. Yesterday the London Times disclosed the identity of two of the three whose views made them unacceptable to Vatican officials: Caroline Kennedy and law professor Douglas Kmiec. [An earlier version of this posting made reference incorrectly to a third name-- which came from my misreading of the Times report-- thanks to a Commenter for the heads up.]
