"I don't think you could make a determination, in my judgment, about who the president should be based upon their position on that issue."

I don't even know where to start with this. Is Casey pro-life for political gain, or does he actually believe personhood begins at conception? If so, the logical conclusion is that anyone who supports abortion is enabling murders. How can such a person be fit for office?

I agree. The reality of politics is that compromise must be made and each and every voter must decide which issue, or combination of issues, form the criteria for your vote. Anyone who is a single issue voter gives up a lot of options.

Anyone who believed Casey Junior when he said he was more or less pro-life was smoking some sort of janja weed. He's pro life until any time it becomes inconvenient.

We'll see how prolife Bobby is when it comes down to the nitty-gritty on voting for or against any porolife bills that come up.

If Casey is pro-life, then I truly appreciate that. No issue is of bigger importance than protecting the unborn.

If he doesn't support pro-life 2008 candidates, what business is it of the pro-life movement? If it's true that he himself is pro-life, then that's good and that's one more vote for pro-life legislations. Again, assuming he's TRULY pro-life and not putting on this dog and pony show. Keep in mind that Casey is a Democrat and will probably vote with the Rats Once again, the pro-life movement is shooting themselves in the foot with their narrow thinking.

I hope the shortsighted morons who wouldn't vote for Santorum, because he stood by Spectre instead of Toomey, realize that now instead of pro-life republican that fights against abortion (but was convinced to back the admin's guy)... they have a pro-life democrat who also stands by pro-abortion candidates, and is barely holding on to his convictions (not for long I predict), and will do nothing to challenge the democrat line.

Casey... What an worthless empty suit.

Realistically, the most anti-abortion thing that a Federal Senator can do is to approve strict-Constitutionalist judges to the bench.

Casey will find other reasons to avoid doing that.

"I don't think you could make a determination, in my judgment, about who the president should be based upon their position on that issue."

If the President isn't pro-life, then we won't get the kind of Supreme Court appointees necessary to overturn Roe v. Wade. So how can anyone claim to be pro-life and support an abortionist for President?
