How you can find anti-Catholicism in learning the data on voting while reading at a conservative, activist political site, especially on prop 71, goes a long way to explaining the Catholic vote. Shoot, shovel, and cover up, protects the Catholic liberal vote, I don’t want to hide it and protect it, I want it to come under attack by conservative Catholics that want conservatives to win and that do not want their church to be a tool of the left.

You'd be surprised at the extent of antiCatholicism. The RM has thankfully banned some hate sites. But trust me on this: an ever greater number of us are fighting the liberals, and now we have a great Pope on our side.

Then stop making blanket statements like "Catholics vote Democrat". That's personally offensive to someone like me, who has never, not even once -- I'm 50 years old -- voted for a D Presidential candidate, and only on exceedingly rare occasions for a D in any other office. (I live in the South; sometimes Southern Democrats on the local level are more conservative than the Republicans.)

"The Catholic vote trends Democrat more than it should" is a statement I'll agree with you on. As long as the D party remains anti-life and anti-family, the solution to that is to make more Catholics into better Catholics who take their religion with them into the voting booth.
