If you’re a serious-enough Catholic to be tempted to vote in sectarian solidarity, then you’re also a serious-enough Catholic to dislike the pro-abortion Kerry. And if you’re a zealot who votes against anything with the least odor of Catholicism, then you probably don’t have much choice except Kerry, the Catholic. For where anti-Catholic bigotry in 1960 came mainly from the Evangelical right, it comes overwhelmingly in 2004 from the pro-abortion left–who certainly aren’t going to vote for Bush.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
