No. She is against abortion in cases of rape.
Please also read her interview with Katie Couric on this issue.
She is personally pro-life and has set an example of such but is very pro personal liberty and conscience. Her positions are classically states’ rights and personal liberty centered and not federally centrist centered...which is a GOOD thing!
First you criticized her supposed "pro-choice" stance, and now you applaud it as constitutionally wise?
I slipped on the rape issue and I expected you would correct me on it...I didn’t edit it out on my posting.
I wasn’t criticizing her nor nor supporting her on her ‘pro choice’ issues just pointing out that she isn’t “conservatively pure”. Her positions have always seemed balanced and nuanced towards states rights and personal liberty of conscience.

What about the social issues that Alaskans, especially the party faithful who often decide primary elections, may find important? Here’s what Sarah Palin has to say about abortion.
Palin said last month that no woman should have to choose between her career, education and her child. She is pro-contraception and said she’s a member of a pro-woman but anti-abortion group called Feminists for Life. “I believe in the strength and the power of women, and the potential of every human life,” she said. “

If one agrees with Catholic positions on contraception then one might have some issues with Palin. On the other hand, this goes strongly hand in hand with her views on personal freedoms and liberties as well as sports a strong pro life outlook which other Catholics might admire.
Now, bottomline, I will vote for her if she comes up as a candidate in 2012. I am voting for her based on her moral personal examples she has set and on her work in Alaskan government. All politicians have flaws, and they are not gods...Palin is not purely conservative but she is true blue pro American and pro energy and capitalist. I can live with all the rest!
