The only thing I find weird about BRTD is that he loves or hates states and counties based on whether or not they voted for Obama.  He seems to disregard other factors in those states and counties.

Yet, since he hates the Catholic Church, he throws that logic out the window and completely ignores that the majority of Catholics voted for Obama and the majority of Protestants voted for McCain.

Let's just have some consistency here.

I think he would argue there are different kinds of Protestants: the good ones who probably voted Obama, and the Evangelicals who obviously voted for McCain.
Regardless, he doesn't make exceptions for certain counties in Hilllary or McCain states, or certain precincts in Hillary or McCain counties, so it's not consistent for him to start splitting liberal Protestants and conservative Protestants...might as well look at liberal Catholics and conservative Catholics as well.

Not only is that false, it's a dangerous thing to suggest.  Thankfully the Catholic Church doesn't try to strongarm its members into voting a certain way, unlike many Protestant churches.

His hatred of Catholicism is so extreme that I'm almost surprised that his two votes for president (04 and 08) have been for a ticket that included a Catholic over a ticket of two Protestants.
