Like I said before Mass attending Catholics that voted for Romney dwarfs any protestant denomination in the country.
You need to worry about the 15% of the population that are black in this country that voted 97% for Obama. That’s a hell of a lot of votes.
The red/blue map does not support your assertions.
Romney was an interesting case for pro life conservatives. I did not support him in the primaries given Santorum was the best pro life candidate.
Romney’s history as a pro abortion governor and the fact he did not sign the pro life pledge as did the other GOP candidates, made voting for him a tough decision. But knowing any vote for a third party candidate was a vote for Obama I held my nose and hoped Romney would make good with his statements.
We are entering an era of politics where the GOP will continue to present us with candidates who have little difference from their demoncrat opponents. We see that now with the sodomite issues. Do we really expect a GOP presidential candidate in 2016 will support a traditional marriage amendment platform? No way they will side step the issue and say let the states decide. But we know that is a cop out given every week states with traditional marriage laws are being shot down by federal judiciary fiat.
So for any GOP candidate to get the nomination next go around they will focus on fiscal issues since that is all they have left to get votes. Yes a very bleak picture indeed.
