A poll taken Feb 1 – 5 shows that by a 58/ 37 margin “Catholics” support a government mandate requiring all employers who provide health care plans for their workers to include abortion and/or birth control coverage at no cost. Nevertheless, in spite of this 21 point edge some high profile “Catholic” Democrats are walking away from Obama on this issue.
This begs an important question: Why would these CINO (Catholic In Name Only) abortion supporting Democrats be afraid to stand with Obama ? The PROOF that Catholics DON’T care is right there in black and white! It’s twenty one points – isn’t it? That should be “game set match!” – no? Well, no.
The truth is that polling companies consistently hide the truth about the “Catholic vote.” They never admit there are actually two “Catholic votes.” One measures the sentiments of anyone who says he/she is a Catholic – even those who have NEVER voluntarily walked into a Catholic church. These CINOs make up about 2/3 of America’s 70 million Catholics. The remaining 1/3 are the real Catholics. They attend Mass regularly and try to follow Church rules. Real Catholics don’t reflexively vote Democrat.
In 2008 real Catholics voted for John McCain 50/49 – a slim margin for sure, but in the face of the reported 54/45 victory Obama had among “Catholics” it was significant. It was a signal of what was coming in 2010 when “Catholics” switched sides and supported Republican Congressional candidates 54/46 for a remarkable 18 point turn around.
While there isn’t a precise breakdown of how real Catholics voted in 2010, among all voters those who attended religious services at least weekly voted Republican 58/40. That would include real Catholics.
How can we “guesstimate” who real Catholics are? Well the approximately 1/3 or 23 million Catholics who attend Mass each week gives us a go idea. What scares these CINOs is that that 58% could grow to 68% in November, and even more when the extremely low levels of Democrat enthusiasm is factored in.
Could a possible increase of 10 points for the Republicans be scaring these CINOs?
Why else would they run away when the polls are saying they have a 21 point edge?
The CINOs aren’t fooled by the polls, and neither should we.

Who took that poll? What I would like to know is, what do the Vatican and American Life League have to say about it? The ones who have the authority to declare what the Catholic response should be are the ones to be heard in the matter,. NOT the hot air of a liberally biased media intent upon tearing down anything that fails to agree with the Obamunist manifesto. I can guarantee you that no catechism respecting Catholic is going to say a single positive thing about Obama’s conscience violating mandate – to the contrary, if they voted for him in ’08 you may expect to see them shift to the Republican side this November if for nothing else than that alone.
I don’t believe any polls related to Obama the lier in chief but I agree with you.
I DON’T BELIEVE ANY OF THESE POLLS; nobody, but nobody could want this yahoo back in power!!!
Not everyone is as sane as you and I. There are many who will vote for him again–all the usual blocs.
I don’t agree, only his paid people will vote for him. Maine has already proved corruption, they are practicing to to rig the polls but they won’t get away with it. There are too many smart people watching.
95% OF THE BLACKS WILL VOTE FOR OBAMA FOR ONE REASON AND ONE REASON ONLY …BUT THEIR NOT RACIST !!!!!
Barack Obama did not “cave in” to pressures to undue the mandate of providing the contraception requirement. He has just “shifted” the mandate from the federal government to the insurance companies and then mandating the insurance companies to provide contraception.
The underlying issue here is “still” the mandate requirement by government, thereby breaking down the United States Constitution, the 1st. Amendment, Barack Obama’s goal. It has always been his goal. There is no other goal. It is the same with government’s intervention and control of the Commerce Clause, thereby demanding that YOU buy insurance or be taxed/fined.

Now that the President has mandated that insurance companies “have to provide” pills and other contraceptives, when will the government get out of the business of providing taxpayers money to Planned Parenthood?
If insurance companies are mandated to provide pills and other contraceptives, are the employees of the insurance companies mandate to the same which would be a violation of their own religious freedoms.

Muslims are given get religious freedom – Everyone else NO: http://biggovernment.com/cjohnson/2012/02/15/understanding-obama-why-muslims-get-religious-freedom-and-catholics-need-not-apply/
Don’t forget his agenda to lower the legal population. It’s all tied together to weaken us for a NWO (NoWO) takeover. Spit on him.
You’ll see 100% of Catholics watching his execution for treason when it comes.They’ll probaly be clapping to
