Interesting you mention pro-abortion .. (I am referring to the larger picture and not just thiose who pass the "test").
imo, The GOP is moving in 2 directions or has 2 warring factions if you will...and can easily be swung around to go the opposite direction at the state level which we do see happening here in california , a prime example.
The gOP is not even effectively fielding a candidate against DiChiFi.

"I plan to vote for the most conservative candididate who is electable."
Sometimes there is little conservative in any of the candidates, what then? It hasn;t done much for us here in the Gol-darn state.
I don't care what circumstance it is, I will vote for the most conservative electable candidate.
I look at it like, "I hate the Steelers. I dislike the (fill in the blank Patriots/Iggles/Giants). So I will root for any teams I dislike who will defeat the team I hate."
