Every election this gets trotted out to beat Republicans. And they take the bait. This time the argument is a bit different but end of day, Republicans will lose on the argument. Why not keep focus on immigration such, on the great economy instead of once again arguing about abortion. Leave abortion for congress to deal with. How many good candidates will lose for this issue, how many Democrats will win because of it?
I disagree, and I could be Completely wrong.
It happens often :)
I don’t think many, if any, seats are lost by Rs because of this issue. That’s what msm pushes as its narrative to frighten us.
Just like the “you can’t run a conservative for president!! It has to be somebody who can win!!” mantra.
I also don’t see a dem winning because of this issue. At least not in a district or state they weren’t going to win anyway.
I know NO ONE, left or right or center, who votes on this issue alone.
And even if the left did, we NEVER had their vote to begin with.
Especially NOW, after PROVING that a conservative CAN WIN, now is NOT THE TIME TO FEAR.
But to strike.
This makes pro-life a highly viable political position.
Plus, from a principled point of view, the one foundational rationale for having a government at all, is to protect us all from aggression, force and fraud.
Abortion is an obvious and widespread instance of aggression, force and fraud. If government will not do that, t'hell with government.
Im not a single issue voter but some matters are so important that you cant get my vote if youre wrong on them. If the GOP wants my vote for president in 2020, they will have to nominate someone who provides good reason to believe that he or she will do what their oath of office says theyll do: support and defend the Constitution. Any presidential candidate who doesnt understand how the Constitutions clear language that No person shall be deprived of their life without due process applies to abortion, well, they dont meet my minimum standard for support, and Ill do what I can raise up someone who does. Im glad I was able to help FReepers be in a position to win the Electoral College in 2008, 2012 and 2016 if enough others voted for them.
Bull crap
Youre a coward
The entire world is about life vs death and slavery and murder
This is the winning nest of ALL issues.
Murder babies or save them
