Will Catholics allow fellow Catholics or even themselves to Practice Catholicism? NO.

Most of them voted for Obama. ‘Nuff said.

No, most of them voted for Romney.

There are many good and wise non-Catholics supporting the Church in this. God bless them!

The faithful Catholics supported Romney; the poseurs supported Obama.

[CatholicVote.org] The Catholic vote cannot be understood correctly without defining what we mean by “Catholic.” And since 2000, intelligent political observers agree that the best way to measure the Catholic vote is to break up the generic “Catholic vote” into those that regularly attend Mass (active Catholics) and those that do not regularly attend Mass (inactive Catholics).

So what happened in 2012? Here are the facts: Active Catholics accounted for 11% of the electorate in 2012 and voted 57-42 for Mitt Romney over President Obama. This represents a 14-point swing from 2008.

Inactive Catholics represented 13% of the electorate and voted 56-42 for President Obama.
