"We will never fix the Catholic vote as long as the majority of Catholics are committed to the idea that voting democrat is correct and proper, that Catholics are SUPPOSED to vote democrat."

No, we will never fix the Catholic vote as long as the majority of Catholics continue to not vote. Voting Republican is not an end, it is a means to an end. Until that means aligns itself with the majority of Catholics and Catholic doctrine neither party can presume the Catholic voter is in their pocket. The GOP should not look to convert the Catholics, it should look more to representing the Catholics. That is how democracy works.

Peace be with you.

the majority of Catholics and Catholic doctrine

"We" need to get the majority of Catholics aligned with Catholic doctrine, then the rest of these issues will be moot.

The Democrat party does align itself with Catholics and Catholic doctrine, that is why Catholics are a part of the Democrat party instead of the Republican.

Democrats can presume that the Catholic voter and the Catholic church is in their pocket, because they are, as socialized medicine and immigration to replace Protestant America are top on the agenda for both, even right now with all that we know, no one is certain that Catholic voters will turn on Obama.
