Yep. Liberals think if she's finished off, public interest in the pro-life cause will be dealt a devastating set-back. They can't understand people fighting for a lost cause. I think it was Jimmy Stewart's character, in "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington," who said it best: Lost causes are ALWAYS worth fighting for."

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

Here's another quote from the NYT, not in the article:

"Crowd Remains Outside Hospice; Terri Schiavo's family, including her father and brother, have asked supporters to remain calm."

Gee, I wonder why they did that? I'll tell you why. It's because the authorities asked them to, and they know that if they don't play ball with the authorities, then they won't themselves be welcome very long. The truth is that the Schinders are on Terri's side, but their concern is limited to Terri. They are not there defending a broader principle, as are the protesters. The authorities, though, are obviously concerned about their ability to control these protesters, or they would not be trotting the Schindlers out there to calm down the crowd.
