Lets face it, it is not Roe you want overturned you want the abortion law in each state rescinded. That is not going to happen and is not an electable position for someone running for President.

We can personally be against abortion and try to get stricter term limits and regulations but realistically it is never going to be repealed and for a prospective POTUS to run on this would be political death.

I've seen some discussions on EWTN now and again (and I'm a Protestant) discussing ROE, and many Catholics believe that abortion will not be completely wiped out, it will be given to the states to decide and alot of the blue states will opt to keep it legalized, and abortion will be made illegal in the red states.

Exactly right, snugs.
I tried in my first reply to kyle, to point out that we're not a theocracy, which is what he wants, so long as the religion is his. Tali ban mentality.

My opinion on the abortion question:

1. The new SD law will be overturned, thus helping ensure the continuation of Roe v. Wade.

2. I do believe abortion law should be left up to the states, with the following principles:
A. Early term abortion shall always be legal in cases involving rape, incest (with a minor), and the mother's life.
B. Abortion shall be available at any point to save a mother's life.
C. Other than to save a mother's life, no partial birth abortion shall be allowed.
