What they don't understand is that it would be far better to put that effort in a state-by-state campaign, after Roe v Wade is overturned, than try for the whole ball at one time.

Each state can be targeted more effectively, than trying to lobby the Federal congresscritter to do the right thing.

In the first place, they won't have enough money.

In the second, they will be seen as radical as the global warmists.

Each time the Feds have been wrong on legislation it has taken longer to eliminate it or a complete societal breakdown(Prohibition vs gang activity) to repair the damage.

Hey, Pistol ... I hear you. But it sounds to me like Fred would be AGAINST our state-by-state campaign to make abortion illegal.

There may be another way to interpret his words, but it sure sounds like Fred not only thinks it's a state decision, but he is also against banning abortion state by state.

His words may have another reasonable interpretation, but no one has taken a stab at one yet.

I don’t know any gop candidate, including rudy, who is against overturning roe v wade. Rudy said he supports a federal ban on partial birth. But if you say “state’s rights! state’s rights!” you don’t even get that because that’s federal law.
