But what if his “conversion” is a ruse and he “decides” that a litmus test for a SCOTUS nominee is “too divisive” (in order to get them through a rodent Senate) ? We can’t take that risk. Fred had a solid pro-life voting record in the Senate.One last post. There are no guarantees with any candidate. I recall having the same concerns about George W. Bush in 2000. Fred will get my full attention if he decides to run.
You’re right, there aren’t guarantees. But what I’m looking for is someone who has consistently shown a committment to a given particular issue. In the case of Dubya, was he ever previous on record as being pro-abort ?
