This message must be brought to every Catholic and like minded Christian. We cannot forget our religious training when we vote.

Like many others, I'm having trouble with the idea of voting for the "lessor of two evils". Initially, I felt it necessary to "raise a little hell" after the GOP selected a RINO such as Romney for the presidential candidate. I believe because many raised a ruckus as well, the GOP felt the need to select Paul Ryan, much more conservative, for the VP candidate.

Still, I have doubts. But after much consideration, and learning more about Romney, I believe he will listen to God and make no mistake that God will get his attention.

I also fall back to part of a message that John sent to the church of Thyatira:

Rev:2-24 Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you, 25 except to hold on to what you have until I come.

If Romney as president fulfills the need to "hold on to what we have", so be it...

obama has no Catholic, Christian or conservative values, how anyone who claims to be these and vote for obama really needs to examine their heart and mind.
Romney is tougher. He supports many liberal issues, like abortion (although he uses qualifiers like rape, incest and health of the mother) but maybe good for the country in general.
So what do Catholics, Christians, and conservatives do?
It will be a very difficult decision for millions of people.

Yes, vote for the gay marriage enacting, pro abortion, architect of public funded healthcare that forces us to pay for contraception or Obama.

silly. A bunch of us were campaigning yesterday. none of us voted. and most of us will not vote for the candidate we campaigned for. Why? (think about it)

Voting is not a sacrament. It is a trivial civic matter.
