aborted democrats should be factored into the equation:

The Empty Cradle Will Rock
How abortion is costing the Democrats voters--literally.

BY LARRY L. EASTLAND

More than 40 million legal abortions have been performed and documented in the 30 years since the U.S. Supreme Court declared abortion legal. The debate remains focused on the legality and morality of abortion. What's largely ignored is a factual analysis of the political consequences of 40 million abortions. Consider:

• There were 12,274,368 in the Voting Age Population of 205,815,000 missing from the 2000 presidential election, because of abortions from 1973-82.

• In this year's election, there will be 18,336,576 in the Voting Age Population missing because of abortions between 1972 and 1986.

• In the 2008 election, 24,408,960 in the Voting Age Population will be missing because of abortions between 1973-90.

These numbers will not change. They are based on individual choices made--aggregated nationally--as long as 30 years ago. Look inside these numbers at where the political impact is felt most. Do Democrats realize that millions of Missing Voters--due to the abortion policies they advocate--gave George W. Bush the margin of victory in 2000?

The number of abortions accumulate in size and political impact as the years roll along. Like an avalanche that picks up speed, mass, and power as it thunders down a mountain, the number of Missing Voters from abortion changes the landscape of politics. The absence of the missing voters may not be noticed, but that doesn't mean its political impact disappears. As seen during a famine, what no longer exists becomes as relevant as what does.

Bump! aborted voter statistics

If I had gone to a Kerry FReep, I wanted a sign that said "Kerry, some of your voters are missing! 1973-1982 ROE V WADE" or "some of your voters were aborted" or something even cleverer. Glad to know someone has compiled the statistics, so we can use them in the next election cycle!

But do remember that if there were no available abortion, people might change their mating habits. Babies that might be conceived with the safety net of available killing might not be conceived if it weren't there.

I told my Brother in 1994 after the Pubbies took the house and he was pissing and moaning about how this would effect abortion, "Bobby, the only thing good about abortion is fewer Democrats."

Even that is inaccurate. What about the potential children of those aborted children?
