[edit] Current Political Impact

Recently added:

It is also been a political attempt to lure the predominantly Democratic Roman Catholic vote to the Republican Party, an endavor which has shown significant progress in the 2002 and 2004 elections.

Two problems

• This is a point of view asserted as fact.
• It is incorrect. patsw 01:06, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anti-Catholicism

An edit by Gentgeen (talk · contribs) on 04:48, 15 May 2007 added this article to the Anti-Catholicism category.

The problem I have with this is that the article doesn't say that the Blaine Amendments were passed because of Anti-Catholic sentiment or anything of that nature. There is an indirect reference to it being Anti-Catholic. -- MicahDCochran 02:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
