I don't think most people really give a damn about stem-cell research and who supports what. It's probably "important issue" #29 on a voter ranked list.

You may be right, but you sure wouldn't know it from the MSM and, like it or not, sheer volume of noise (at least $16 million worth according to the StlToday article) does sway some voters.

The anti abortion groups will make stem cells a focal point, regardless of how little stem cells have to do with actual fetal abortion or human cloning.

Who cares like you say? They are already doing the research and I see no harm if it does indeed bring cures for some diseases.
