It's time for the GOP to face the reality that Catholics WILL NOT vote for Rooty Toot and it is impossible for the GOP to win without Catholic voters.

During scripture study last night a group of us and our priest were talking about the conference and the abortion issue.
One of the people asked if we are not guided by our conscience while voting.
Our priest explained that peoples conscience can be guided in many ways, if the guide is not the word of God, the conscience will not guide you in the right direction.

Looks like the Bernardin’s “consistent ethic of life” is dead.
This is a very good sign!

I'm a Catholic - a devout, practicing Catholic who teaches the faith to 12th Graders.
If the choice for President is between Hillary and Rudy, you'd better believe I'll pull the lever for Rudy. He has been upfront about his pro-abortion views, and has also been upfront in saying that he would appoint Justices to the Supreme Court in the mold of Alito and Roberts.
Any GOP candidate will win my vote over a radical feminist pro-abortion Hillary Clinton. Including Rudy.

Way to go Catholics (I applaud your church for standing up for Life, and having the Christian faith to recognize the principles for doing so behind it)!

This is a Catholic bump that I’ll gladly join! Rudy is NOT the answer!

"It's time for the GOP to face the reality that Catholics WILL NOT vote for Rooty Toot and it is impossible for the GOP to win without Catholic voters." The Catholic Church is the largest denomination in the US. The Baptists are the next largest, both accounting for about 41%, and of course, both are strongly anti-abortion. The next largest denomination is Methodist/Wesleyan at 6.8%, our countries' largest solidly pro-abortion denomination in the US.( Numbers from www.adherents.com ).

While this won’t make much difference in vote counts, it is great to see the Bishops actually at least saying what they are supposed to say. Now when they bar abortion fan politicians for Holy Communion that would be something. I doubt that will happen.

Around here most of the Catholics vote for the dem candidate anyway. I have heard all sorts of justifications, mainly that the DNC cares more about “the poor” and the “undocumented” then the GOP.
This document will not be received very graciously here (eastern Iowa/western Illinois). My wife's parish has a quite a few Hillary bumper stickers (though my own has at least one!)
As to what will happen if Rudy gets the nod, well there will be alot of people writing in their dog in November 08.
