Santorum is widely known as the Catholic candidate and if you listen to all the useless pundits on TV...they all say that Catholics will definitely vote for Santorum. However, Romney has won the Catholic vote. This would seem so counter-intuitive. After all...all of the Catholic bishops and cardinals seem to hate contraception, gays, and abortions in any circumstances. Plus, Santorum shares all of those views and Romney pretty much doesn't. Catholics who vote in the GOP primary also tend to be more socially conservative than Catholics in general... So...what gives?
That's because the "conservative" Catholics are just Catholic, not Catholic Catholic. Not that many Catholic people share the same viewpoints as the bishops and cardinals. Surprised?...don't be... People who don't get laid (Catholic bishops and cardinals) tend to go crazy.
