LOL, anything to keep conservatives from learning the truth they need to find a solution to the Catholic vote.
I think the least of our concerns is the Evangelical vote, since they are the most right wing voters in America, and vote conservative at about the rate that Jews vote liberal.
The voting block that we need to find the key to changing, is the Catholic vote.
We do know though, that all Catholic voters, are Catholic, including the 54% of Catholics who voted for Obama.
Now you are singing my song, American Catholic militancy, a more aggressive, unyielding conservative American presence in the Catholic church.
BTTT!
Unfortunately my entire Catholic family voted for this jerk. I, the outsider, born-again Christian was the only one who did not.
This is only the beginning. Wait until HHS tries to force Catholic hospitals and facilities into performing abortions under the threat of withdrawing Medicare and Medicaid funding.

Correction: Losing the "Catholic Vote"?
Liebau and her headline editor should know better.
Repeatedly citing unscientific and highly unreliable exit polls as if they provided metaphysical certitude of anything is indicative of how truly ignorant you are.
You do recognize that the Catholics who voted for Obama are Catholics don’t you?

Romney Won’t Get the Catholic Vote

Old guard Republicans are in a state of near hysteria over the prospect of Newt Gingrich being the Republican candidate against President Barack Obama.
They say he is unelectable because of his volatile personality and problematic past. The answer to this problem, they say, is the candidacy of Gov. Mitt Romney. He should be the Republican candidate because he is “electable.”

Catholic Church circulates anti-Obama letter

I was wondering why last Sunday the homely seemed political. The priest kept saying that Hope and Change was not the change promised and that it was an empty promise. It was the most political I have ever heard in my local church. They tactfully supported Obama in 2008 with all the promises of a more just world and helping the poor. I guess the church “leaders” finally figured out what we already knew Obama is a false prophet.
The incumbent Democrat president has possibly lost the Catholic vote once before in American history, and that may have been Jimmy Carter against Ronald Reagan in 1980 where polls give a range for the Reagan Catholic vote of 46% up to 50%, anyway, it was close to a 50/50 split.
Will Catholics turn against Obama, I don’t know, but it isn’t certain whether Newt or Romney would do better.
I personally think that Newt would be worth a couple or a few points once they learned that his is a Catholic. I do think that if Newt can get in, that he would aggressively work to move the Catholic vote to the right and that 8 years later, they would be more conservative.
That is very good news, we need to see more of that.
This whole thing could be turned around, and I think that a President Newt would try to drive that in the Catholic church.
