Yeah, unfortuantely this is the way Catholic Democrats have gotten around a lot of these soical issues. Kerry is pulling a Mario Cuomo here (btw, if you get the chance, go use google and look up some of Cuomo's speeches on being Catholic and pro-choice, good stuff).
Kerry wanted to have it both ways far too often, and it made him hard to get behind.
