Short of an amendment to the Constitution, what the heck else could happen?

Congress could criminalize it and a Congressman (say Ron Paul) could sponsor a bill to significantly constrain the availability of abortion in the meantime.

Roe V. Wade needs to be challenged again and agian - sitting on our hands and hoping that one day it will magically go to the states is not an option, since every state law is gutted by the courts.

Sigh. Why doesn't Congress just go ahead and criminalize all murder then? It is not the federal government's job to prosecute crime.

I agree 100% and I'm sure Ron Paul does too. Unfortunately, it is difficult to have a case be revisited by the Supreme Court, but if we keep getting justices like the last two, it might be a possibility.
