This gets to the heart of what I've been saying.

There is always an exception...although as I've said many times, the "out-Jesusing the primary opponent" appears to be a failing way of finding candidates for Repiblicans.

considering he won the CAtholic vote nationally this wasn't surprising. Nor do I believe that a majority of the 'nones' are Christians, they may claim they are religious but there is a huge difference in being religious and being a Christian.

It also shows how liberal the Catholic members are becoming, as Obama attacked the church in a huge way, their leaders were against Obama and yet he wins their vote.

I can certainly see obama winning the nones because that is what he is, a none.
