“Common ground” means that those opposed to abortion compromise their principles. It NEVER means that the killing stops. The leftist killers are perfectly willing to meet you half-way. They are willing, for the moment, to accept the killing of the thousands in place of the killing of the millions.
Actually, they're not willing to do that. They are unwilling to place any restrictions whatsoever on their Constitutional (NOT!) right to kill babies, through the ninth month (partial birth abortion) and beyond (Obama was against the Infant Born Alive Act, the purpose of which was to proetct babies that managed to dodge the abortionist's blade long enough to be expelled from the womb to breathe free air.)
