Are Catholics now so “successfully” assimilated into American political life that they are without political impact—that there really is no such thing as a “Catholic vote”? Unfortunately enough, Catholics are largely indistinguishable from non-Catholics and, despite a few pundits, no, there really is no “Catholic vote.”

So immigrant Catholics from Catholic nations vote more conservatively and pro-life than Catholics who have been here for generations?

We know that it is the opposite, the more American that Catholics become, the less liberal they are.

The left isn't pushing for Catholic immigration because they fear that it will take generations to turn them from pro-life conservatives into pro-abortion voting liberals.

Except that you offer welfare, food stamps, amnesty, obamacare, and they’ll flip over so fast your head will spin.

Nothing like fostering entitlement mentality to change a person’s political views.

Is there any evidence to support this assertion?
