is Rick Santorum more or less objectionable because he is a Roman Catholic?

[nclib]

Voted 'less objectionable'.

To be honest here's the root problem here for me: It strikes me as a little absurd to say that Catholicism is generally OK and good and it's just some people like Santorum and the leadership who are ruining it but evangelical Protestantism is fundamentally rotten for rather obvious reasons.

Please elaborate. I'm by no means a fan of the Catholic Church, but don't find them nearly as rotten as evangelical Protestantism.

I'm a liberal evangelical, so....

I thought the ELCA is only Evangelical when that was (mis)translated from Protestant, and that ELCA members aren't considered Evangelical in the modern use of the term.
