There is a chance that this election will begin a significant realignment in American electoral politics. Catholics, once a reliable Democratic constituency, may be switching parties. Snip
The latest Gallup Poll, released yesterday, has the race almost tied among Catholic registered voters, 50 percent for Kerry to 48 percent for President Bush. But that’s not likely to be the final result on Election Day. Gallup’s data show that Bush leads Kerry handily, 51 percent to 44 percent, among “good Catholics,” those who actually practice their religion. This is important because practicing members of any faith are more likely to vote. Kerry is strong among “bad Catholics” who don’t practice their religion or their politics with any regularity. (He’s one of them on the first count, but I suspect he’ll get around to voting.) It is only a surge in support among bad Catholics that has Kerry in the hunt, especially in some key battleground states.

Is K-boy a Catholic? I bet he hedges his prayers between all the major religions - Jesus, Moses, Allah, Buddah, etc.
But those 44 % really aren't good Catholics after all if they vote for Kerry.
Yeah, all 5 of them...
He's got that buddhist-hands-together-bow thing down pretty well. Must have had lots of practice!
LOL! "I have lied repeatedly to the American people in order to get elected."
Kerry should NOT call himself a Catholic! I wish Mother Teresa was still around to give him what for.
