This is just some liberal Catholic outriders who have no problem supporting “Catholics” Pelosi, Kerry, Kennedy, Leahy, Mikulski, etc., etc., when they help abort millions of babies and reward law-breaking illegal aliens.
Bachman or Obama - which one would you want sitting in judgment on you if you were a Catholic?
“Bachman or Obama - which one would you want sitting in judgment on you if you were a Catholic?”
I would support Bachmann if she were the nominee, based upon my ideology, conservative, not based upon her Church’s views of the Pope.
But you are seriously wrong if you think there are not many Catholics in places like PA or Ohio or New Mexico who may have voted for Obama last time but are disillusioned with him and are looking for a GOP candidate to vote for. Unlike ideological voters, such as those on FR and other conservative sites, they are inclined against Obama but not certain to vote against him or even to vote at all.
Bachmann’s nomination would give Obama all the fodder he would need to run ads in PA, Ohio and across the midwest, questioning her beliefs against Catholics and driving Catholic voters away from her. That is the reality of it, whether you like it or not. Ignoring this in a GOP primary is not going to mean the Dems will ignore it.
Bachmann is about as sure a loser as you can get. Leaving the Church six days before she announced for President suggests that She knows this is a problem.
Yet some of her supporters, including the closet Romneybots who are pushing her, do not seem to realize it. Or at least they pretend they don’t realize it.
