"The Church" does not throw its support behind candidates. Low-information voters unfortunately elect losers. Very easy to soak up information via osmosis and say "hey he's like me (or so they think) so I'll vote for him" or "hey I remember Romney he seems like a nice guy with slick hair so I'll vote for him" or "hey he's Republican so I'll vote for him."
