It takes a *lot* to get conservatives riled up. But once they are, get out of the way. Something good is going to happen one way or another.

I could share your optimism if it were not for one thing: abortion.

Constitutionalists have been falling for the rope-a-dope on that one for forty years. I see no reason to believe they've wised up any, now. We're further away now than when we started.

Constitutionally (IANAL) this is a tough one because of the SCOTUS acceptance of the whole "penumbra" argument. Once precedence is made it is very difficult to overturn it.

But this is another journey of a thousand miles, isn't it, and conservatives haven't given up. That, in itself, is encouraging.
