Reagan was solid pro-life and never backed down form it.

In 1980 he recieved a lot of votes from pro-choice Democrats. Why? Because the economy was in such bad shape that they put aside their views on abortion and voted their economic needs.

We’re in the same boat today. The GOP isn’t going to lose a single vote by being pro-life, but they will pick up tons of votes (including those of pro-choicers) by being pro-economy.

Look to 1980 to see what we need to do.

Yep, we need to ignore God and take the Libertarian route, that worked well when we ran Goldwater.

Do we not remember how many people voted McCain, only because he put Palin on the ticket? We forget at our peril. I am sick of this Better Red Than Dead attitude that is pushed on this forum, by all the Palin hating libertarians. There are some things worse than dieing and I fear we shall soon face that choice.
