That makes millions of us. It would be counterproductive for pro-lifers to vote Republican if Bush breaks his promise on this issue. It would waste of time, money and effort.
Overturning Roe wouldn't stop abortion or make it illegal either.
I understand your point of view, but don't get ahead of yourself. Your statement had two big IFs:
1. If its Clement
2. If she turns out to be a moderate
Right now we don't know if number 1 is correct...and we are a long time for judging if 2 is correct.
Like I said, no guts no glory. It will be a while before we know where Clement actually stands with SCOTUS rulings, but if the Democrats had the chutzpah to nominate an ACLU vermin like Ginsburg and get her through without a contest, why the defeatism on our side of the aisle when it comes to nominating choices that reflect conservative values?
The Dems took advantage of our stupidity and used their politcal currency to get Breyer and Ginsburg on the Court. The tepid pussyfooting of the GOP amazes me to no end.
Do you really think if Roe was overturned that abortion would become illegal?
That's NOT what would happen, believe me I live in CA, it was legal before Roe and would be after. You can't blame Republicans for that.
How would she stand on the Kelo case, is that of any importance to you?
Well, I agree with your sentiment, but respectfully disagree about the "millions." The 2008 election, like the previous 54 or 55 or so (excluding Duh Dole's 1996 nomination fix) and like the elections in 2024 or 2048, will be "the most important election of our lifetime." Any excuse for the principle-be-damned crowd to rationalize one more vote.
