Over at The Campaign Standard, Jody seems to think that the Super Tuesday numbers on the Catholic vote leave his thesis that there is no distinct Catholic vote in tatters . I’m no expert, but it seems to me that Jody is being overly harsh on his own thesis. There’s actually much in the data that seems to confirm it, although enough contrary evidence to make it worth examining anew. All in all, it’s an interesting question and one which I’m looking forward to Jody revisiting.
In other political news, the great George Will has a classic line today: He notes that “the Republican Party’s not-so-secret weapon always is the Democratic Party.”
And if you’re looking for still more to read on the election, don’t miss Michael Barone’s astute analysis in the WSJ.
