Potential Presidential candidate studies torah with Nosson Scherman?

Senator Sam Brownback a potential presidential candidate created quite a stir in his interview with Rolling Stone magazine. The part that got my attention:
Brownback also studies Torah with an orthodox rabbi from Brooklyn. ‘Deep,’ says the rabbi, Nosson Scherman. Lately, Brownback has been reading the Koran, but he doesn't like what he's finding.... really strange

Whats the chidush? We've already had presidential candidates who learn gemara - his name is Joe Lieberman

How can you compare?! This guy is Catholic for one and he's learning with Nosson Scherman?
