Catholics threw their support to President Bush's relection, as did most believers from Christian denominations. Mr Bush ran on a strong, unwavering pro-life platform.

The impact of 2004 Values Voters---the Catholic, Black, and denominational religious vote----is so striking, even Hillary is trying to look like Mother Teresa. Here's why:

Conservative pro-life Christian voters made monumental contributions to GWB's 2004 vote totals. Pres Bush won with 63 Million Votes (13 million more than 2000).

The map, though impressive, conveys the misleading impression that blue state Catholics voted for Kerry (a CINO).

According to EWTN "The World Over Live" analysts, with the exception of VA, where Catholics spit 70/30 in favor of Bush, the majority of Catholic voters split 55/45 for Bush.....a whopping number of votes since Catholics number about 52 million Americans.

According to CNN exit polls, Bush voters included 38% of union members, 40% of those with union members in their households, 42% of those earning $15,000-$30,000, 44% of those who earn under $50,000 and 44% of Latinos, 45% of youth (aged 18-29), 13% of liberals—even 11% of Democrats voted for Bush.

2004 Election polls indicated 34% called themselves conservative, 21% liberal.

The National Association of Evangelicals represents 39 million churchgoers. There are an estimated one billion Catholics around the world.

America's census bureau said 159 million US citizens describe themselves as Christians.

If you look closely, the map appears to place the insignificant "Other Voters" in the ocean.....that's accurate, because "Other Voters--RINO Republicans" were on cruise ships while the rest of Americans were home working.

(MAP UPDATE Bush won Ohio, Iowa and New Mexico later.)

What about the other 22%. How could any evangelical vote for Kerry? Must be those be folks from People for the American Way and the rest of the Christless Christians.

The two agreed to disagree, but held mutual respect for each other. What an honor to have the president speak at the Prayer Breakfast.
