The McCain-Palin ticket may be locking its huge lead on a crucial voting bloc: church-going Catholics.
No matter what Obama may try to pretend to be one of us, he may talk like a believer, but most of the religious conservatives are NOT fooled.
The combined Christian-catholic vote bloc will be insurmountable by Obama. There will be a RECORD number of them out to Vote come November! You can take this to the bank!
The development — contained Thursday in a poll by the Pew Research Center and backed by other polls — could be crucial to victory in November.
Why? Catholics are the ultimate swing voters and make up as much as one-third the population of battleground states like Ohio, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Moreover, some 40 percent of U.S. Catholics have no affiliation with either party.
Republican presidential candidate John McCain now has opened a 16-percentage-point lead over Democratic rival Barack Obama among observant Catholics, according to the Pew poll. The lead began to widen with the selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate, who, unknown to most voters, was baptized in the Catholic Church but raised in primarily Protestant evangelical churches.
