Compare the two:

Vs.

A light reservations:
The first is from 2000 while the second is from 1990.
In the mean time FL became more bluish while TX became brighter.
Does anyone have a more recent one?

The conclusion is unambiguous.

Catholics do not vote in a bloc.  

Neither Catholic nor Protestants are voting in a bloc, but what you can see from the map that I brought, is that the heavy catholic states are also heavey Dem states.
There are  differences between the two faithes on two major issues: the death penalty and poverty.

Louisiana is heavily Catholic and voted for Bush. what's your point?

LA should be compared to AL, MS, GA etc. Bush got in LA  around 5% less then in other Deep South states.
