I agree a pro-abort would be a tough call, but it’s a call you have to make if both candidates are pro-aborts. I’m vilified (by some FReepers) for saying this, but it’s not black and white.

There are different levels of pro-aborts. Perhaps the opponent supports government funded abortion on demand at any time for any reason. Most Democrats do. A Republican that is generally pro-abort but supports restrictions is better.

I’m talking about general elections of course. One can (and SHOULD!) try to defeat the pro-abort RINO in the primaries. Even if your stuck with the RINO, you might still have some sway over them. That’s better than what you’ll get from a Democrat (absolutely nothing).

Don’t forget. Senators are there for six very long years. Pick the course that best serves your cause or at least does the least amount of damage.

I don’t understand why anyone would vilify you for trading the lives of babies for political gain.

Seems perfectly reasonable...to liberals. Like situational ethics. Speaking of which is your steadfast intent to vote GOP no matter what the only principle you stick to? I ask because so far everything else seems negotiable.

I respectfully disagree.

We must draw a line in the sand someplace with liberal republicans or you’re without principles. I don’t really care if you want to murder at 12 weeks or 20 weeks or 34 weeks. You wouldn’t have to kill it if it weren’t alive.

So, if I have to draw a line at overspending or murder, I’ll pick murder; immigration or murder, I’ll pick murder, etc. Some of those can be nuanced, but there’s no nuancing murder.
