Have you checked the record for New York City during the Giuliani years? The # of abortions dropped by a large percentage. A lot of the vice crime was cleaned up as well. You can legislate against something as hard as you want but until you get closer to the root cause of such ills, you're not going to stop it. By making a healthier environment, Rudy accomplished that in spades over many "true conservative,""less liberal" politicians. How can you support someone who does nothing to change people's minds but instead drives them even further to the left?
No source, naturally.
As Murdock acknowledges, the number of abortions was declining nationwide during this period -- obviously for demographic reasons -- and New York City merely reflected that trend.
