Goode is better than Romney. He just hasn’t made as much money as Romney sending jobs to China.

I honestly believe Romney will win by 6-10%. My concern is with the Senate. If Romney can make it a big percentage, the Senate will also flip to the GOP. IMO

You’ve got more faith than me… Keep praying…! 👍

Even a Democratic Senate will reconsider it’s positions more to the right after a “decisive” Romney victory. That’s asking a lot. I wish I had your faith…

A lot of people have no clue what the exemption means and how narrow it is. Any Catholic organization/charity that serves anyone besides Catholics, will NOT be exempt. If a group of Catholic sisters runs a maternity home for those escaping from Abortion, and serve the women REGARDLESS OF RELIGIOUS BACKGROUND (meaning, serves them even if they are lutheran, etc) they are NOT exempt. They would have to pay FINES for not buying insurance with contraceptive coverage.

My Diocese has a new service, a home for women escaping domestic violence and for those at risk for abortion. They serve women of ALL FAITHS. Even though it is staffed by non cloistered religious sisters, they also have therapists, etc. Since they serve NON CATHOLICS, they will probably NOT BE EXEMPT!

This is why I am hoping we won’t be punished with another 4 years of Obama, because those Catholic charities that perform the Works of Mercy will either be forced to work in secret or be forced to shut down due to FINES!

Are they offering these women insurance? I thought the mandate was to cover noncatholics who WORK for a Catholic institution, not the people they are helping.

IMO, it is all simple math. 🙂

I am talking about the exemptions and what the government considers “religious”. A Catholic school that enrolls non catholic students would not be exempt. A maternity home staffed by religious sisters that serves women of all faiths (not just Catholic) would not be exempt…the HHS would not consider them “religious enough”. At least that’s MY understanding.
 
Our family: 3 votes for Romney in Virginia and 1 vote for Romney in Alabama (guaranteed red anyway). We will be at the polls tomorrow with bells on!

Our extended family are all in Ohio (Lake County). We can count on at least 25 -30 solid Romney votes there and, unfortunately, 4 for Obama. Maybe I should disown them (they’re in-laws). My 97 year-old Grandmother is having my Dad take her to vote for Romney tomorrow. Awesome!

Thank you! My family has been GOP since Hector was a pup. So we are essentially voting in accordance with our normal history.

My 96 year old mother will be voting Democratic - not for Obama, but for the Democrats. She thinks the GOP hates the poor and the elderly… I won’t disabuse her of that notion. 🙂

I have no idea whom my wife will vote for. When we were married, we decided to not tell each other how we would vote lest there be marital strife.

My sons will be 2 for the GOP and one for the Dems, my daughter Dem…

And, I have never told them how to vote. They are adults and make their own decisions…

My wife is a former Democrat. She changed stripes when she saw how much we were paying in taxes (true story). My daughters will vote GOP. The youngest campaigned for McCain during her high school years. She is at Ohio State and working for the Ohio GOP on the Romney campaign.

I am a very proud father and husband!

And why not? It’s grand that your daughters actively participate in politics. I’m satisfied that my chidren exercise the franchise, regardless for whom they vote.
 
Ugh, I hope there isn’t a long line tomorrow. We have the three-and-a-half year old and she isn’t likely to be pleased.
