Am I wrong, or is John Kerry divorced and now remarried outside the Church?

If so, why would he claim to be Catholic?

Well, you have to realize that Kerry is a loyal member of the American Catholic Church, which welcomes abortion, divorce, gay and female priests, etc. Quite different from the Church of Rome. [sadly, only slightly sarcastic]

I believe the track record is that the majority of those who call themselves Catholics vote D. He's not likely to lose that base as a result of these comments.
