Catholics change course, now back Obama by 10 points!
Okay now that I have your attention lets look at the demographics that make up the headlines we have been reading.
Since 1964 no Democrat has won the White male vote. White males have been steadily backing away from the party of high taxes and low patriotism year after year. In 1964 very few people had heard of Ronald Reagan except for his work as an actor. The White males who started to move away from the Democrats were not Reagan Democrats. They were men who tired of the continued leftward drift of their party. Theyre gone and not coming back.
This year the Democrats are running a man who is a Black socialist with a Muslim name.
In 2000 Al Gore got 36% of the White male vote. Four years later John Kerry got 36% of the White male vote. Does it seem likely Barack Obama will do even as well with White males as the two White males before him?
Clearly its a good bet that the poll numbers showing Obama ahead are not coming from the 43% of voters who will be White males.
Catholic vote
In 2000 Gore won among Catholics, 50/47. In 2004 there was a strong grassroots effort to win Catholic votes for George Bush. He beat Kerry, who is a Catholic, by six points.
This year Catholic bishops have taken an active part in explaining the grave error of voting for a supporter of abortion, let alone allowing abortion survivors to slowly die in a closet to meet the original intent of the procedure as Obama put it.
Catholics will be 26% of voters. Obama was down 56/37 at last look. Does anyone think the bishopss statements have closed the gap?

for later
when pigs fly
These poll are bogus.
This can’t be right, it has got to be Bradley effect.
Could be 0 gets none of the 57 states.
Well, yeah, when you add in all of the dead ones.
We had the pleasure of listening to Bishop Martino’s letter that was read throughout the Scranton Diocese.
Very powerful.
Palin draws bigger crowds in Scranton than Biden does in his “home” town.
Bullshit!!!!!!!!!!!!
A complete laugher. These guys are ninnies. Before reporting any of this garbage they need to subject it to the laugh test. This does not pass.
In a pig’s eye.
LOL I didn’t think of that
Am I missing something? Where is the poll that support this claim?
Looks like 37% are not real, practicing, and Christ-believing Catholics.
Vote or Die
Did anyone read the article? When I read it, I got the impression that the writer was saying this is absolutely NOT true and the polls really are bogus.
He thinks it’s impossible that white males and Catholics are going to vote for BO, so where are the votes coming from? Thus, the polls are suspicious.
Just my take on the article. Could be wrong.
My thoughts exactly, good sir.
NO, and NO. Yippeee
