Unfortunately that's the way the game is played and for the pro-life folks, it is life and death. Truly it has been death for 40-50 million Americans. They see that this may be the last time to have any sway to get abortion outlawed.

When if they looked with calmer eyes, they'd see that they could accomplish so much more if they embraced a guy who believes in overturning Roe v Wade and returning it to the states. But that's not good enough for them -- they won't support that!.

Hence either R -- the one that supports nationally funded abortion (Giuliani) and the one that would seek to destroy it nationwide (Romney?) loses. The mulishness of pro-lifers results in zero reduction of abortion rates and utterly fails to deal a meaningful smack to the wrong, sad value in American culture that abortion, let alone tax-funded, is a birthright (ironic!) for poor women and girls -- a smack upside the conscience that would eventually result if it went back to the states.

Such pro-lifers are so stuck on the egotistical thought that the party needs them, as opposed to the other way around, that they create an awful thing.

"But that's not good enough for them -- they won't support that!."

I have no idea why you would make such a statement, perhaps you have information regarding the rather diverse groups of pro-life Chrisitans that I am not privy to. Dr. Dobson does not speak for all prolife Christians and I have yet to hear all of them speak in one voice.

For a commentator such as Hannity to push a candidate so early, who is anethema to our core values as is Guliani is bewildering.
