When it comes to voting, they’ll vote as they wish according to wherever they get their opinions from–TV, the newspaper, the mass media–just like their neighbors. The one source they won’t consider when informing their vote is their priests and bishops.

They have only voted republican 6 times in history (those by narrow margins), they are following some common ideology, some guiding force.

"They have only voted republican 6 times in history..."

You should be far more concerned about the GOP deviating from Catholic teaching than the degree that Church teaching can be bent to endorse the GOP.

The GOP platform has varied significantly over the period of time you continue to harp about, yet Church teaching on things like abortion, contraception, same sex marriage, pornography, social justice and access to health-care has remained constant.

"Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right” - Abraham Lincoln

Peace be with you.

The GOP invented demographic warfare.

I'm an independent. No party represents my beliefs as a pro-life conservative Christian.
