It is such an issue loaded with land mines that we need to leave these issues

Precisely what we have done since Reagan. How is that working out annie? You call yourself a Texican, not hardly.

REAGAN did not win because of the social issues. He barely mentioned it except when addressing pro life groups. Scott Brown lost because he was an R in a heavily Obama loving state.

These issues are not going to attract young voters as we stress smaller government but want to criminalize a procedure that women view as a right. We have passed Partial birth Abortion bans and stopped tax payer funding of abortion and many states have passed parental notification. Leave it at that to the states and get it out of national politics.

The perception of some old fart like Aiken telling a girl what to do is such a turn off to young voters. I have a young daughter and she thought he was stupid and ugly.

Don’t tell me I am not a Texan when I about as conservative when it comes to fiscal issues as they get and not for gay marriage. As a woman and mother of a young daughter, the strident pro life position needs to go and leave it to the churches and pro life organizations to try to convince women not to abort.
