Today, Cubans are a minority of the Hispanic population -- just 31 percent. The rest are divided among Puerto Ricans (18 percent), Mexicans (13.5 percent), and more than a million Colombians, Peruvians, Nicaraguans, Dominicans, Venezuelans, and Guatemalans (37.41 percent of all Florida Hispanics).

• Puerto Rico - Roman Catholic 85%, Protestant and other 15%
• Mexico - Roman Catholic 89%, Protestant 6%, other 5%
• Colombia - Roman Catholic 90%
• Peru - Roman Catholic 90%
• Nicaragua - Roman Catholic 85%, Protestant
• Dominican Republic - Roman Catholic 95%
• Venezuela - Roman Catholic 96%, Protestant 2%, other 2%
• Guatemala - Roman Catholic, Protestant, indigenous Mayan beliefs

Does anybody see a pattern here? Is there any wonder why people from these countries might skew Republican?

Sorry to blow away your paradigm, but Guatemala is majority Protestant (yep it is these days). Actually, I am not sure what your paradigm is. What is it? :)
