I have no doubt that the anti-Catholic brigade here would be doing the same to Santorum if he were leading.

You know for posters as ignorant as you are, Moose, you really should think twice about exporting it. (There's no "industry" out there wanting to purchase it)

Here. Do yourself a favor before you continue to utter mindless drivel. Click on the CNN link within the article and go to the exit poll results from Saturday's vote.

What will you find there?

You'll see that...
...almost 2/3rds of Evangelicals/Born-Agains (65%) voted for two Catholic candidates (Santorum & Gingrich).
...Of the Protestants, 59% voted for the two Catholic candidates.

By comparison, do you want to know what percentage of South Carolina Catholics voted for those two Catholic candidates? 52%

Your ignorance and open bigotry vs. Protestants generally and Evangelicals specifically isn't very flattering.

It's not worth a road show. (Time to shut down the keyboard for you before you lose ALL credibility on anything you say)

Here’s my point:

While Protestant voters would most likely prefer their candidate to be Protestant if all other things were equal, professed religion is not their main concern. What they do care about is whether candidates will govern with the same values they hold. Romney’s liberal values not matching their own was the deciding factor for most voters, not his religious affiliation, although it may have had some influence. Saying that he lost because he was Mormon gives Romney the excuse that his loss was due to religious discrimination. That is inaccurate, and I would prefer not to give Romney that excuse, but instead let the world know that he lost because he is a liberal.
