I like the guy, and think he would make a good Presidential candidate... except that he's pro abortion. Not quite my definition of a conservative.
Yes..but he doesn't seem to be the usual rabid firebreathing abortionist.

How is it that abortion is conservative or liberal ? I thought conservative meant restrictions on govt. and more individual freedom.
Abortion is about morals and defining a fetus/baby as such which is outside the conservative/liberal distinction.
