From the article:
"Catholics overwhelmingly chose Democratic congressional candidates, according to exit polls. Nationally, Catholics made up 26% of the vote and chose Democrats over Republicans by 55% to 44%. In 2004, Republican congressional candidates had managed to win 50% of the Catholic vote, to 49% for the Democrats. "

According to Freddoso, this reversal occurred despite many Republicans' strong pro-life and pro-family stances, not because of it. Thankfully, the newly-elected freshman Republicans are a conservative group, and they number several staunch pro-life activists among them - most notably Bill Sali (ID-1) and Michele Bachmann (MN-6), both of whom were elected with strong support from the House Conservatives Fund.
