Two new polls show a sudden shift of undecided Catholics toward Kerry

Crazy isn't it? Just last week Bush was ahead, 49% to 33% among White Catholics.

In both cases, the improvement seemed to come from undecided Catholics choosing Kerry, not Bush Catholics switching.

Neither poll teases out the causes for this, but in both cases the shift happened after the second and third presidential debates. It was in the third debate that Kerry had his most expansive declaration of his personal faith.
