Who wouldn’t vote for Reagan, a great pro-life presidential candidate in 1980, a life-long pro-lifer, just as Romney is a life-long pro-abortion guy.

Romney spent at least 5 years trying to create a myth that Reagan, who Romney despised and didn’t vote for, was “adamantly pro-choice”, Romney even left the GOP in 1979, and eventually became a democrat supporter and fund raiser.

Purists voted for lifelong pro-lifer Reagan, Romney ran against the republican party’s pro-life party platform as it’s 2012 presidential nominee, after being arguably the GOP’s most passionate, and sincere, and emotionally persuasive abortion promoter for many years.

There is no benefit in trying to make Romney not be what he was or in making Reagan out to be what he wasn’t.

That has nothing to do, however, with the logic of ABO’s versus non-ABO’s.

The first said that “ANYTHING” was better than Obama.

The second said that STANDING FOR PRINCIPLE was most important of all.

I stand with the second group, but there is no way I can “prove” my position or “disprove” the ABO’s, since both positions are opinion based.

Lakeshark is not being anything but honest about what he believes is/was the right answer. I do not see that as sinful or anti-conservative.

Reagan was not a life long pro-lifer, that's simply incorrect. He signed a pro abortion bill in California, and some years later changed his mind. Romney changed his mind in 2006.

He's never recanted from that change. The church you denigrate so often Ansell, happens to be pro-life (I am not a Mormon, moron, and yes that's an insult to someone who deserves it), so why do you think it's any less sincere than Reagan's change?

"Purists" like yourself who won't vote to remove the most pro-abort administration ever are simply pathetic. Even if you don't trust Romney (I never did), what in the world are you thinking? Is it even possible for Romney to be any where close to the extremist positions our current white hut occupant holds in every thing?

Once again, you're a pathetic liar for pretending I'm some kind of Romney worshipper, and incredibly stupid to have helped reelect the alternative.
