you can go to
http://www.catholicvote.org and ask them for the statistics. They went for Clinton and then Gore Big Time. Let's face it, many Catholics were brought up as FDR & JFK Democrats, pro-union and still vote that way and now with the influx of so many Hispanic Immigrants the Catholic Vote will remain Democrat.
In 1992, 44 percent of Catholics voted for Clinton, while only 34 percent of Protestants did so. In 1996, 53 percent of Catholics voted for Clinton and only 35 percent of Protestants did so.
The voting record for Catholic women is even more remarkable, showing both a religious gap and a gender gap. In 1992, 44 percent of Catholic women voted for Clinton, while 39 percent of Protestant women voted the same way. In 1996, 59 percent of Catholic women supported Clinton, while only 47 percent of Protestant women did so.

"you can go to

I went there and there was no such statistic that I could see. The claim that "About 50% of all American Catholics don't really care what the Pope thinks about Jesus or morality" is highly doubtful and different than the info about politics that are at that website.
I would like this claim documented by that poster.
