“A well-formed Christian conscience does not permit one to vote for a political program that contradicts fundamental contents of faith and morals. Some candidates and one party have even chosen some of these as their party’s or their personal political platform. To vote for someone in favor of these positions means that you could be morally ‘complicit’ with these choices which are intrinsically evil. This could put your own soul in jeopardy.”He must be referring to the Republican Party's support for the death penalty, torture, and slashing programs that help the poor in this country.
So you heard the good bishop...vote for Obama!
Or go to Hell.

There are so many good Catholics (I'm Methodist) and other Christians who really take the teachings of Jesus seriously (even if, like me, they don't really believe in the mythology). It is a pity that the CEOs of that particular institution still don't get it. BTW "The Borgias" is a great show!
