The Pope is also against the death penalty and the war in Iraq. Is the church going to refuse communion to Catholic politicians who favor them?

When John F. Kennedy ran for president, he had to assure Americans that he wouldn't let the Vatican dictate his policies. I don't understand why Rome is now trying to meddle in American politics. If voters think Catholic politicians are bound to obey their church instead of the U.S. Constitution, Catholics are going to have trouble getting elected.

No. Catholics have no trouble getting elected.

Whether Kerry has trouble getting elected is another question, he clearly is not Catholic; he's a traitor who thinks sucking the brains out of babies is juuuuuust fiiiiiiine.
