3. Has Giuliani said that a “strict constructionist” reading of the Constitution would end abortion?

I'm not pushing for Mayor Giuliani, but this question of yours leads me to ask: what if a candidate believes that a strict constructionist reading of the Constitution leaves the issue to the states??? Is supporting the Constitution not good enough?

Perry has not stepped up to stop illegals crossing our border, has tried to sell our highways to foreign companies, and tried to push unrequired vaccinations that would only benefit one company on our children. Conservative this guy isn’t.

I’ll counter your question with a question. Has G ever said that Rowe is bad law? My impression is the opposite.
