No surprises here...

This comes from a News Story at CNS...

New score card rates Catholic senators' votes on various issues
Kerry, a Massachusetts Democrat who is the likely Democratic nominee for president, received the highest score of all 24 Catholic senators in the analysis. Durbin was second and Santorum was 20th.

Msgr. Francis Maniscalco, secretary of communications for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, had no immediate comment on the score card.

Santorum said he hoped the score card would prompt comment from the USCCB and individual bishops.

Durbin's score card gave an average score of 34 percent to the 10 Republican Catholic senators on those domestic issues, while the 14 Catholic Democrats received an average score of 79 percent.
I guess this is all we need to know...the article appears to advocate the scorecard but then, I have become unduly suspicious of CNS reporting.
