We seem to be mostly in agreement. And Huckabee has denounced these attacks as wrong (to his credit).

Where has Romney stated his view that he favors partial birth abortions?

Well, that's just it. When he was fully pro-abortion, I never saw any statements from him saying he was "pro-choice...except for..."

There's multiple statements of his saying he supported, was committed to, and even "sustained" Roe vs. Wade ("sustained" being the highest level of support any Mormon could give to something...given its meaning to "sustain" its "prophets")

It's not like some parallel legal door-opener existed that made partial-birth abortions "legal." Partial-birth abortions have been "legal" simply because Roe established abortion on demand all the way up thru birth.

Since all later-term abortions were legalized under the guise of "health" of the Mom, PB abortions have been committed under that guise. (And how many pro-abortion politicians have you known who have wanted to back away from being "pro-choice" to protect the alleged "health" of the Mom?)
