Theocons vs Obama

Douglas Kmiec is the exception. There’s a campaign among some of the most vocal theocons to describe Obama as unacceptable to Catholic voters. K-Lo, cocooned among the far right, just assumes that no Catholic nun can be a Democrat. Bill Donahue – surprise! – has been venting the meme here and here. Catholics United hits back here. Obama has been gaining – just a little – with Catholics. But he has a lot more work to do. My sense is that the better they know him, the more they’ll be open to giving him a chance.
