I favor legalized abortion for pre-sentient fetuses in the first trimester, oppose it in the third trimester, absent the most dire health issues with respect to the mother, and in fact consider absent that, aborting viable fetuses, simply murder, which should have legal consequences that comport with that. Second trimester abortion should probably be illegal, but with lessor penalties. That is what I believe. That is my opinion. Characterize it how you like. I have had that opinion now for about 30-35 years. And it is an opinion, I have stated many times on this very forum.

I favor legalized abortion

For the babies who die, that is the only part of your sentence that matters in the least.

Its one thing to favor Roe. It its quite another thing to support abortion anytime, anywhere, and for any reason. I refuse to vote for any candidate who holds those views.

I would be open to voting for a pro-choice Republican if he/she, at least supports reasonable restrictions like parental consent, 24 waiting period for abortion, and affirms the Hyde Amendment (a federal law which bars Medicaid funds for abortion services).
