Worth mentioning that the white catholic vote just followed the trend of the overall white vote. That makes sense, because white catholics are a heterogeneous group that basically mirrors the white US population as a whole.

White Catholics, by contrast, swung strongly in the Republican direction relative to 2008. Nearly six-in-ten white Catholics (59%) voted for Romney, up from 52% who voted for McCain in 2008. Three-quarters of Hispanic Catholics voted for Obama, and Catholics as a whole were evenly divided in 2012 (50% voted for Obama, while 48% backed Romney).

Hispanics tend to be Catholic, but Evangelicals and Mormons (as well as good old free thinking) are making inroads with them as well.

But supposing that the Hispanic vote is similar to the Catholic Vote, what does that tell the men in dresses, and that creepy old perv in the Vatican?
