Suppose the law was that abortion was legal only for liberals.

What would that mean to the electoral demographics in a generation or so?

How is that different than what's happening now?

Will the libs ever figure it out?

The Wall Street Journal had an article, that because the 2000 election was as close as it was, the Democrats (Gore) would have won if abortion would have been illegal -- about 40 million more Americans.

This is mainly because abortion takes out more liberal voters than conservative ones. I just can't remember the date of the Wall Street Journal article, but it was before Peggy Noonan took a leave of absence from the Wall Street Journal.

I think it is happening right now. I am seeing a lot of young couples who are having babies at my Catholic Church! Also in evangelical churches.

Another thing, the youth of our parish are very conservative. Definitely against abortion and for prayer, even Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.
