Kerry votes for his core powerbase...and since his core powerbase wants abortion, he finds excuses to support it...He also tends to tell people whatever they want to hear...to hunters he talks about hunting (even though he's voted consistantly to constrain guns, even ones hunters use), to the religious, he's trying to play the faith card, to those who are for the war, he is trying to sound strong, while to the anti war he is trying to sound against it...
His voting record speaks for itself, and I will never listen to what he says over what he has done...
plus he still takes communion EVEN THOUGH many many people have explained what the magisterium and catechism teach about abortion and voting pro-abortion.
But since his constituents are pro-welfare state and anti-life, he votes that way, and uses the church to cover his tracks as much as he can. But he walks and talks like a CINO....
I believe Kerry is a liberal to his core, he just can't admit it.
