“Uh, because Life matters to the GOP base. Seems logical enough to me. It’s amazing that some people are too smart to get it.”
And pro-life is in the Republican platform.
I thought this was interesting:
“As for Romney, there is no single reason to explain why he hasnt gained more traction. However, his sole remaining claim to being a top-tier candidate rests primarily on his leads in Iowa and New Hampshire polling. But, even those leads may be less than meets the eye. As governor of Massachusetts, he has a tremendous home court advantage in New Hampshire and is the only candidate spending money on TV advertising in that state. It will be interesting to see if his lead holds once the other candidates go up on the air as well.”
