To understand Romney’s abortion position, watch the YouTube video of him with Jan Michelson. Why would people find it a stretch to believe that a man who has ALWAYS been personally and morally opposed to abortion could be pro-life? My guess is that they are either un-intelligent or have a secret (or not so secret) agenda in tryint to smear the man. It would be nice if other candidates could start discussing real issues rather than creating ones like this.

Very well stated. It is a ploy to divide conservatives launched by the DNC, but picked up by the useful idiots in our own party. Sadly, it will only lead to a President Giuliani or President Clinton -- both decidedly pro-abortion.

Why ignore all THIS? Shouldn't actions speak louder than words?

Why would people find it a stretch to believe that a man who has ALWAYS been personally and morally opposed to abortion could be pro-life?

Because being "personally opposed" while champoining legal abortion is a preposterous position that many of the most radical pro-abortion Democrats hold.

Mitt's stated position on abortion was that it should be safe and legal, and he held to that position -- according to his own statements -- from 1970 to 2004.

Bill Clinton's stated position on abortion was that it should be safe, legal, and rare.

If Bill Clinton were to come out and say he's pro-life today, would you believe him, too?
