Makes it clear how uncatholic he is.

He needs the catholic vote. Really, I think the average catholic won't think much one way or the other about this. If he doesn't set foot in a catholic church for awhile, it will largely go unnoticed is my guess. Wait and see. It's a family thing, too. Catholics normally don't just walk away from the church, even those who don't really have much faith.

This is a very calculated move and, while it could backfire, it could be a plus in some ways.

I see three groups, those who are die hard democrats. They won't care.

Those who are die hard pro-lifers. They will care, but it won't change their votes.

Then there is the mushy middle. They might care, it depends on how its presented to them, and whether they think he has crossed lines or not. Some will object, see www.catholicsagainstkerry.com. Someone has already registered www.catholicsforkerry.com, but I don't see a website there.
