I continually withhold my comments regarding abortion, but I don’t believe that it is an issue that resonates with most Americans (even though I am against it). Most Americans are okay with the status quo, so why should Republicans make abortion their main platform? Whether we have a Democrat or a solid conservative Republican in the White House, Roe v. Wade will probably remain untouched.

If we can’t get someone elected based on their views on abortion, then we should at least find someone who will lower taxes, shrink the government, and maybe bring us closer to the roots of our founding fathers.

Actually
Abortion is a winning issue!
However, only between 15% to 20% of the public thinks that abortion is the MOST important issue.
Of those, prolifers have about a 4% to 5% edge.
No, the issue alone can not get anyone elected.
However, do not worry about our candidates being prolife.

They are more likely to WIN as prolifers.

Me?

I am VERY prolife. But if Obama gets us all nuked, the babies will glow with the bubbas and the Kenyan’s and the Communists and the Conservatives.

Lets focus on survival first.
