"But that does not make it so, added Farina, who believes that "most Catholics base their votes on reasons other than their Catholicism" -- because they are blue-collar or white-collar, Hispanic or not Hispanic, white or black, military veterans or not."

I'm voting against the Democrat nominee for manifold reasons, but primarily because I'm pro-life and he's in favor of partial-birth abortion.

I don’t think there really is a Catholic vote, frankly. Our rebellious bishops have convinced Catholics that the Dem party is seated at the right hand of the Father, so most of them will unreflectingly go out and vote for whoever is the Dem candidate. Sadlly, expecting them to vote on the basis of faith and morals is pretty futile.

Catholic voters can NOT vote for Obama.

Obama has repeatedly voted for partial birth abortion and accepts from and gives money (ear marks) to Planned Parenthood.

No, do not vote forObama.

I am Catholic and the only thing I look at is that the candidate be pro-life. All others not apply!
