Key counties to watch are the semi-urban counties far away from the two big urban centers: Lehigh, Northampton, Erie, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Dauphin. Northampton-Lehigh just sent a R to Congress. Erie and Dauphin went R in 2008. If Romney wins about 50 percent of the vote in Lackawanna and Luzerne, he will win the state. It is entirely possible. Those are Catholic counties with no love at all for the sexual leftists. - Tony Esolen Fri, 01 Jun 2012 15:19:37 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/will-pa-catholics-make-the-difference.html#comment-11661 Well done, George..."from your lips to God's ears." - Seanachie Wed, 30 May 2012 07:19:29 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/will-pa-catholics-make-the-difference.html#comment-11660 Why do people insist on calling Robert Casey Jr a Pro-Life Democrat? - MichaelP71 Wed, 30 May 2012 05:20:51 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/will-pa-catholics-make-the-difference.html#comment-11659 Unfortunately, the hapless laity and their feckless bishops are playing right into the hands of the merchants of death. - Terry Wed, 30 May 2012 05:00:25 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/will-pa-catholics-make-the-difference.html#comment-11657 There are many electoral map web sites on line where various scenarios can be assessed. I think the author makes a plausible argument and Pennsylvania could be seriously "in play" this year. I would also posit to the author that Virginia is critical to both candidates and specifically, Northern Virginia and the Diocese of Arlington. Bishop Loverde to his credit has been and continues to be a very vocal critic of the healthcare mandates imposed on the Church and I'm impressed with the degree of outreach Bishop Loverde and the Priests in the Arlington Diocese have conducted and continue to conduct in this matter. Pennsylvania cold be a pleasant surprise this year for Mitt Romney but the Catholic vote in the Arlington Diocese just may hold the key in this upcoming election. - Frank Wed, 30 May 2012 00:39:31 +0100 http://www.thecatholicthing.org/columns/2012/will-pa-catholics-make-the-difference.html#comment-11656 I am reminded of Léon Bloy’s question, “Whom does one vote for, when the choice is between Herod and Pontius Pilate?” - Michael Paterson-Seymour Wed, 30 May 2012 00:11:04 +0100
