Funny, pro-life Catholic Dems were a key swing vote in Ohio in 2004. In other words, my "fringe right" views on abortion were the key for Bush winning that key swing state ... and the White House.

Actually they weren't even though that spin makes you feel good. President Bush almost lost Ohio because of government incompetence and corruption in the Republican ranks...and they all lost in 2006. Conservative Democrats didn't vote for President Bush in Ohio or anywhere else because of the abortion issue. Conservative Democrats couldn't stand mophead could not gag long enough to vote for mophead and mopheadless.

Wrong. For whatever reason the state GOP made the election there close - the pro-life Dem swing voters carried the day.
