Roe v. Wade was classic “judicial legislation”. This is much akin to Obama’s “executive legislation” via executive order. The problem with that is the courts and executive branch can’t really legislate. The validity of judicial and executive “law” is that it can be disregarded or changed at any time. Roe v Wade is not “law”.

He certainly made promises in his 1948 “re”election campaign.

Strategy, scare Republicans into thinking it would be bad for us politically to overturn Roe.

Thoughts?

My reaction is “Bring it on.” This will motivate conservatives like nothing else, and liberals will realize that overturning Roe, by itself, will do nothing to end abortion on demand. Heck, there are several states (I know that MD is one) where the state constitution was amended years ago to create a “right to abortion” even if Roe is overturned.

The real battles start after Roe is overturned, with each state getting to legislate on abortion and Congress considering measures with national scope.
