SBA List President Statement Regarding John McCain’s GOP Convention Address

Contact: Joy Yearout, Susan B. Anthony List, 703-875-3370, jyearout@sba-list.org

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5 /Christian Newswire/ -- Today, in response GOP Presidential nominee John McCain's Convention Address, the President of the Susan B. Anthony List offered the following statement:

"John McCain has cemented his role as the one true, authentically pro-life choice for President," said Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser. "Last night John McCain reiterated his commitment to building a culture of life. His words, on the heels of his choice of pro-life heroine Sarah Palin for VP, are exactly what pro-life voters needed to hear. The enthusiasm of values voters shown this week for the McCain-Palin ticket drives home the saliency of the abortion issue in this election."

"Just this week Barack Obama tried to paint John McCain as extreme on abortion, but it won't work. The truth is, the majority of Americans support commonsense restrictions on abortion. From parental consent measures to banning the gruesome partial birth abortion procedure, John McCain and Sarah Palin best represent America's pro-life views. If anyone is outside the mainstream, it's Barack Obama, who thinks babies that survive abortions should be left on the table to die. The pro-abortion extremism of the Obama-Biden ticket will certainly cost them votes, and maybe even the election this November."

In addition to extensive fundraising for pro-life candidates, the Susan B. Anthony List will implement "When Women Vote, Pro-Life Candidates Win!" -- a sophisticated voter mobilization program that is targeting over one million pro-life women voters across seven battleground states. The Susan B. Anthony List plans to invest over $6 million in its 2008 election efforts.

Since its founding, the Susan B. Anthony List Candidate Fund has helped elect 75 pro-life candidates to the House, seven to the Senate, and seven to other statewide offices across the country.

The Susan B. Anthony List is a nationwide network of Americans, over 147,000 residing in all 50 states, dedicated to mobilizing, advancing, and representing pro-life women in politics. Its connected Candidate Fund increases the percentage of pro-life women in the political process.

Selecting Palin was McCain’s best support for his not being Bush.
