Splendid.

Obvs.

Something I find interesting: despite all that is said about the religious right, despite the Palin effect, and despite the US Catholic bishops going all-out on abortion as an overriding issue in the last month, it looks as though there was a significant shift to Obama among both Catholics and other Christians. Even among the more devout the split was pretty close among Catholics, though less so among other Christians. (Would like to know if "white" in those tables includes hispanics, a huge proportion of the US Catholics, probably not). Evidently the vast majority of US Jews aren't too terrified by Barack Hussein Obama either, but that's hardly surprising.

"The Religious Right" isn't short for "Christian" though. (I'll read the link later. I am supposed to be working, despite everything looking a wee bit fuzzy.)

True: it was the Catholic element I found most interesting, in the light of this (which continued right up to the wire). But he has even white evangelicals and born-agains on 25% Obama (up from 21% Kerry).

PS how are you able to read this from work, I thought you were blocked from all such frivolous things.

They decided that we were allowed limited frivol. I usually restrain myself.

You used your election-turning powers for good!
