“Anybody know how many Democrat congressman are pro-life?”
Not many, but a few I think.
There are many more pro life voters who are Democrats; I would guess.

Pro-abortion Democrat Barack Obama may have captured the presidency, but the pro-life group working within the party to change its pro-abortion position has a reason to celebrate. Democrats for Life of America backed several pro-life Democrats for Congress and five won their races.
“The pro-life Democratic Caucus will once again increase,” Kristen Day, the director of the group told LifeNews.com.
“This will be only the second time in 30 years that the number of pro-life Democrats increases instead of decreases,” the said. “The first time we made gains was in 2006 due to the work of pro-life Democrats all over this country advocating on behalf of the pro-life cause.”
Twenty-six pro-life incumbent members of Congress kept their seats. They were joined by five new pro-life Democrats.
Who cares? Those same Democrat congressman vote for House and Senate leadership that kills every piece of pro-life legislation that comes before committee. To compound matters, they also vote to confirm judges that will overturn every piece of pro-life legislation that comes before their docket.
I don't care how a Democrat campaigns to their constituency, I care how they act in Congress - and all Democrats act like pro-abortion sycophants in DC.
In my state, Stupak and Kildee are pro-life. Dingell isn't but is on board against late term which is better than some considering his district has the city of Ann Arbor now.
I think Kucinich was actually pro-life until he ran for president. Bonior was until he wanted to be speaker.
I know of one - Bob Casey. There might be others. How about Gillebrand of NY?
A so-called "pro-life" Democrat is useless in the majority. It is impossible to advance one single piece of pro-life legislation when RATs control the committees. It is folly to even consider the fact there is ANY value in a "pro-life" Democrat in the majority.
If these hypocrites cared about the issue, they would be Republicans. Trust me on this. I've been there. I've worked with these people and I know what I'm talking about.
This is a very bad strategic move on the part of Palin unless there's more to the story than this.
Counting the ones who run as pro-life and then end up with a 14% rating from the NRTLC?
