CT Catholics lost. And when you lose, it means your opponents are winning. So the Bishops and the rest of us got nobody to blame but ourselves.

They did not participate in the campaign. Only the discusssion of issues, no candidates. Ask for a show of hands at daily Mass. How many of you voted? Not much more than half.

And it would not be a landslide for Linda McMahon at any daily Mass that I attend. “Did not vote” gets more votes than Linda. I bet she barely wins the others and these are ... daily communicants.

Out of curiosity what is the age of the daily communicants that did not vote?

I ask this because I have a hunch that this is an older crowd... that while devout they are looking toward Heaven ( as we all should be) and perhaps feel that since they are of a certain age they have lost interest in issues that affect future generations.

I only suggest this because I have heard my father (85) say this. Its the I won’t be around to see the effects of all this so I really don’t have an interest.

Clearly this is a terrible attitude to have...and I do not condone it. Just looking for answers I guess
