To me, that smacks of 1960 all over again

Absolutely.
I was going to bring that up, since I remember those elections very clearly. I was a Catholic in a small Southern town and we were't considered REAL Christians. (In fact, my first boyfriend's father, a rabid Southern Baptist, was very upset when we started dating). I was studying for Confirmation at the time, and we talked a lot about these issues during the campaign.
In the Pope we Hope.
I mean, people really believed this stuff.
That mentality is still alive and well in evangelical communities, and it was mainly to them I was alluding because of Michael's thought that the religious might vote for Romney.
I think it would be in spite of, rather than because of.
