"Regardless of the outcome of the 2010 midterm elections, Pennsylvanians will elect a Catholic governor and a new Catholic U.S. senator.

Sen. Bob Casey Jr. is also Catholic, so voters might think a trifecta of piety is about to hold sway over politics.

All four candidates in Pennsylvania’s two top races are Catholic. And all four play the Roman Catholic card, evoking throughout the campaign images of parochial education and tightly knit, blue-collar family upbringings. "

We have a case here in Colorado where the Democrat is attacking the Republican over the Republican’s pro-Life stand, this one could backfire on the Democrats. I hope the Catholics, all pro-lifers in fact, pick up on that and vote properly.
 
Good informative article, thanks…I live in south central Pa. and never saw this article…I am glad for fellow believers who support our conservative values…
 
That’s awesome for you guys!

I wish the case were the same for us here in California. Unfortunately, all of our candidates for governor are of the culture of death. 😦

Well, observant Catholics around here tend to be quite liberal.
 
I’m sure their will be a post soon telling us who the “real” Catholics are and the others are just “false” Catholics.

I have to admit that none of the candidates in this piece leave me with a warm, fuzzy feeling. I’d like to have a do over on this one.

I don’t know how “false” or “real” they are, but here is one link from a pro-life organization comparing the candidates: content.yudu.com/Library/A1p5t4/2010FallLifelines/resources/index.htm?referrerUrl=http%3A//www.yudu.com/item/details/219188/2010-Fall-Lifelines?refid=21116

Seems Onorato doesn’t want to answer the hard questions and Sestak doesn’t meet the standards on “pro-life” issues.
 
Unfortunately, Senator Casey is not what most would consider pro-life and certainly not a conservative. His father was the real deal.

Some of the local pregnancy help centers put out a pamphlet to churches showing pro life voting records…This allows you to make wise decisions apart from what’s
upfront issues are…

I know, the People Concerned for the Unborn Child and the local Pittsburgh Catholic newspaper will both have a voting guide for pro-life Catholics within the next few weeks.

I do know I got a flyer yesterday from the National Right to Life Committe endorsing Toomey because of Sestak’s vote on the Obama health care bill.
