from Kathianne:
"Tell the truth, I don't care, he's not a Catholic, though that wouldn't earn or negate my vote. He doesn't practice the precepts so defacto he is not Catholic, regardless of his own moniker."
I agree--he's not a (real) Catholic and it would influence my vote if I were a 'real' Catholic. How could somebody who actually practiced Catholicism stand him? If they were honest with themselves, I mean, could they really handle the pro-choice, the abuse of sacraments? The flagrant disobedience of ecclesiastical authorities? Uh, no way.
His fakeness makes one wonder what else is 'fake' about him if his faith is faked.
Personally I wouldn't vote for him anyway though, but I wonder how many 'real' Catholics are turned off by his shennanigans and turn toward Bush. If they aren't, they should be.
