Just what do you think you will “win” with this fake federalist “pro-choice for states” position?

It is not a "fake" position. It is embedded in the Constitution via the 9th and 10th Amendments.

A States Rights 10th Amendment position can win us a bunch of State governorships and legislatures AND the US Senate, House, and Presidency.

Insisting on purity, on absolutely no abortions will keep us out of most State governorships and legislatures AND the US Senate, House, and Presidency.

To win back most State governorships and legislatures AND the US Senate, House, and Presidency we must agree to permit abortions prior to week six after conception, BEFORE an embryo has the neural development to even feel pain and thus be a sentient person.

To win we must draw the line somewhere after conception. Agreeing to week six would allow us to prohibit the murder of persons AND allow us to win most State governorships and legislatures AND the US Senate, House, Presidency.

We can insist on purity of the sort Keyes preaches, and we will remain locked out of majorities, out of government positions which can prevent abortions after week six.

Leave this issue to the States, just as the issue of all other murder is left to the States by the US Constitution.

Actually, without adherence to the fundamental principles, you will obtain none of that. You’ve given away the battle before you’ve even engaged in it.
