>i think liberal catholics are the minority
Definitely not a minority in terms of politics/voters and elected politicians.
>"According to Dr. John Green of University of Akron, "There isn't a Catholic vote anymore; there are several Catholic votes." A survey conducted by the Gallup organization in 2009 revealed that, despite the opposition of the Church to abortion and embryonic stem-cell research, there is no significant difference between the opinions of Catholics and non-Catholics on these questions."
If liberal catholics were a minority, then it would be like 70-30 or even 60-40 instead of consistently ~50/50 on issues like abortion, which is essentially a coin toss.
Clinton and Kaine ran on a platform to repeal the Hyde Amendment, which would basically have forced all catholics, not just the liberal ones, to have their tax dollars used to fund abortion. And yet they still got 47% of the total Catholic vote.
That is way too high a percentage for supposedly conservative-majority catholics, which again comes down to hispanics voting almost exclusively democrat because they're afraid the evil republicans will deport their illegal immigrant relatives.
So even if you give hispanic catholics the benefit of the doubt and say they're only voting democrat because they're afraid of deportations, the end result is the same: shitlib policies become enacted. Similarly, John Kerry's line in the 2004 debate was basically "while I find abortion wrong morally, I can't impose my personal religious views on the rest of the country."

Additionally, the states with the most catholics are also the most liberal/democrat (Massachusetts/Rhode Island), while the states with the least catholics are the most conservative/republican (Alabama/West Virginia).
